About Me

I am a full stack developer with a background automating inefficient processes.

In my previous roles, I worked closely with stakeholders to develop web applications for different lines of business at Hydro One, Ontario's largest electrical utility. Despite the constraints of legacy systems, I successfully boosted productivity by more than $2,000 per month by building automated workflows using Nintex, SharePoint, and InfoPath.

Over the last #1000DaysOfCode, I've fallen in love with modern frameworks, continued building projects, and graduated from bootcamp. To see my growth, follow me on LinkedIn / Twitter for daily updates.
