About Me

I’m currently completing my academic upgrading at SAIT to prepare for admission into the Information Technology Services (ITS) program. I work part-time as a Student Experience Assistant at Saitsa, where I help manage student services, sales, and inquiries at the SAITSA Resource Centre.

With over 8 years of hands-on experience assisting friends and community members with tech issues, I've developed a strong interest in information technology and software engineering through self-study and real-world problem solving.

As someone who is Deaf and on the autism spectrum, I’m passionate about accessibility, inclusion, and supporting neurodiversity in tech. I hope to work with organizations that value diverse perspectives and inclusive workplace culture.

Outside of school and work, I enjoy hiking, camping, and spending time with friends.
