A showcase of my professional work and experience

About Me

I’m a fourth-year Computer Science student at Simon Fraser University with two semesters left before graduation. I’m passionate about building scalable, efficient, and user-centered software. My experience spans web, mobile, and systems development — with hands-on projects in C++, Swift, and JavaScript. I enjoy solving complex problems through clean design, innovation, and continuous learning.
