About

I'm a CS & Business student at SFU with a Dean's Honour Roll — building at the intersection of software and strategy.

From founding a startup at SFU's incubator to running product at BeReal, I've learned that great products come from obsessing over people, not features. I care about shipping things that actually matter — and compete in case competitions to keep that thinking sharp.
