About / approach
Curious about what happens underneath.
I’m completing a Bachelor of Engineering in Computer Engineering at York University. I like problems where software meets hardware, performance matters, and abstractions have to earn their keep.
Whether I’m changing a scheduler, tracing a network connection, or designing a hardware module, I care about understanding the whole path—not just getting the happy path to run.
