About Me
I am a full stack software developer living in beautiful Victoria, British Columbia. I received my bachelor's degree in computer science from UVic in August 2017. I have experience in software architecture and various frameworks such as Laravel, Nest JS, and NodeJS. When I am not coding, I enjoy long distance running and cycling. Climbing Mt. Finlayson in the summer is my favorite hike. When it's too cold for hiking, I am always keen to sit down and play some board games.
I am self-taught in scratchboard art. I mostly draw animals. My designs can be purchased on redbubble.For other updates you can follow me on instagram.
