I'm a Staff Engineer & Technical Leader at Smile.io, based in Vancouver, Canada 🇨🇦

My roots are in backend engineering, but I tend to think about technology as part of a much bigger picture: the business, the people using it, and the folks building it. I like understanding why we're solving a problem before deciding how, thinking in systems, and doing good work without making the people doing it miserable.

Engineer by trade. Psychologist by training. Educator at heart.
