About Me

I get excited about products, the people who make them, and the data that drives them. As an engineering student at the University of Waterloo, I’ve been lucky enough to explore a wide range of passions; through my co-op experiences, entrepreneurial endeavors, and extracurriculars. Having completed 6 internships, in 3 cities (and remotely!) I’ve had the opportunity to learn about product management, technical program management and data analytics. I've also had the chance to complete back to back internships in cloud computing and build my skills in the domain. As I get ready to graduate, I'm looking forward to exploring roles where I can use my customer-facing skills and my love for technology to help build the next generation of innovations.
