About Me
I'm a senior full-stack software engineer with over eight years of experience building scalable applications across startups, enterprise companies, and emerging technology platforms.
I've worked with organizations ranging from high-growth startups to companies like Shopify, RBC, and Red Hat — building production-grade applications used by thousands of users.
I specialize in modern web applications using React, Next.js, and Node.js, while also architecting backend systems, APIs, and scalable infrastructure.
In recent years, I've focused heavily on integrating AI capabilities into applications — working with large language models, vector databases, and AI-assisted development workflows.
My work spans SaaS platforms, AI applications, Web3 systems, mobile apps, internal enterprise tooling, and developer infrastructure. I'm passionate about building software that is clean, scalable, and highly performant.

Featured Projects
A selection of products and platforms I've built across AI, SaaS, Web3, and enterprise.
Lola
I built Lola, an AI-powered email outreach tool that automates the entire prospecting pipeline. It identifies the right prospects using intelligent scoring, generates hyper-personalized messages using LLMs, and continuously adjusts outreach strategy based on engagement signals and response patterns — all automatically.
Academy by Phlyt
I led the end-to-end development of Academy, an internal onboarding and training platform built for Phlyt. Designed the full frontend architecture, built reusable component libraries, and implemented backend services and APIs. The platform was a key factor in Phlyt’s acquisition by Red Hat, and was later integrated into Red Hat’s internal employee onboarding systems.
Clutch Admin Platform
I designed and built the entire backend admin platform for Clutch from the ground up. This powered the operations behind Canada’s largest online car marketplace — handling inventory management, order processing, customer data pipelines, and internal workflows at scale. Built RESTful APIs, database migration systems, and a scalable frontend state management architecture.
NFT Platform Launch
I architected and launched a large-scale NFT platform that onboarded over 75,000 users within the first 48 hours and generated millions in revenue. Handled smart contract integrations, real-time minting flows, wallet authentication, IPFS metadata storage, and built the entire frontend and scalable backend infrastructure.
Enterprise Tooling at Intact & RBC
I built high-impact internal tools and workflows used by hundreds of employees across engineering, operations, and business teams at Intact Insurance and RBC. Led frontend and backend development using Next.js, Spring Boot, and React, with a focus on scalable component architectures and robust API integrations.
