Hi there, I'm

About Me

I’m a front-end developer.

I’m a coffee connoisseur.

I'm a Toronto native whose had the opportunity to live in South America and Africa! Now I live a stone's throw from the CN Tower.

After working in the travel and tourism industry I found a passion for collaborating on digital products and services design, and determined that working with other developers and product teams was where I wanted to be. So I made some major pivots in my life and career, and have been working on making that dream a reality.

I began my journey at a local bootcamp. And have since continued by immersing myself in all things Javascript, including the many development frameworks that are in use today.

When I’m not coding I’m either throwing around a barbell and weights at my CrossFit box or exploring an exciting neighbourhood in the Six!!
