About

I operate at the intersection of data, tech, and market strategy — using analytics to guide what to build, how to architect scalable solutions, and where to invest.

My work runs in two directions: turning scattered data into technical & product roadmaps, and positioning viable solutions for the right market. Across research projects and startup experience, I have delivered on both — from analyzing labor market dynamics to mapping competitive landscapes and validating product usability with real users.

I'm currently sharpening these capabilities as an MMA candidate at McGill's Desautels Faculty of Management. I love using data to bridge business problems with technology, and I'm eager to bring this balance — analytical rigor paired with solution design — to a team driving real impact.
