I'm a Mechatronics Engineering undergraduate at the University of Waterloo. I specialize in building low-level firmware, scaling cloud infrastructure, and diving deep into complex technical systems.
Member of Team Conventional Commits because messy git history is painful. I've also tacked on custom tags like skills:, rules:, and automate: to keep my AI tooling version-controlled.
🚀 What I'm up to:
- Infrastructure: Optimizing self-hosted AI model backends to maximize resource utilization.
- Firmware: Doing the final push on sounding rocket controller firmware before launch.
- ML: Building up NN fundamentals and real-time media processing from first principles.
- Content Creation: Developing automated video-creation workflows (and gaining traction!).
📅 Looking for Winter 2027 Co-op Opportunities Building high-performance AI systems and scaling infrastructure.
