Projects
Don AI Assistant
Browser Extension
What it is: A lightweight browser extension that supports day-to-day residence-don workflows (drafting responses, generating consistent messaging, summarizing content) using the OpenAI API.
Why it matters: Designed for speed and consistency - turn common repetitive writing tasks into a reliable flow while keeping tone professional and context-aware.
Library Management System
Full-Stack + DevOps/Quality Focus
What it is: A library catalog/management system with an emphasis on correctness, testing, and deployment hygiene.
Why it matters: Building features alongside automated testing, containerization, and CI/CD so changes are easy to validate and ship.
Engineering angle: Reproducible environments, predictable releases, test coverage, and clear separation of concerns.

Engineering Practices
I prefer tooling that improves reliability: repeatable builds, automated checks, and clear interfaces. I support automating whatever I can.
About
I'm a Bachelor of Computing (Honours) student at Queen's University (2023-2027) focused on cybersecurity and AI, and I've been on the Dean's List from 2023-2025. One of my primary draws to programming was the efficiency of automation - building software that fully encapsulates a task and its related data can make a real impact on systems today. I like work that sits at the intersection of secure engineering and systems thinking, building software that's testable, deployable, and resilient by design. In practice, that means I'm comfortable moving between development and security: writing Python services, containerizing apps, setting up automated CI/CD pipelines, and using security tooling to find and explain risk. I support automating whatever I can, believing that well-designed automation reduces human error and frees up time for higher-level problem-solving. Beyond coding, I enjoy playing strategy and long-term games, as well as repairing and tinkering with technologies to refurbish and repurpose them for sale or my own use. I'm currently looking for internships, research roles, and early-career opportunities where I can contribute quickly while learning from strong engineering and security teams.
