$ cat about.txt

I'm a Machine Learning Engineer with a background in Electrical & Computer Engineering. My focus is on one of the most consequential problems of our time — the intelligence problem. I want to build AI systems that help people tackle complex, high-impact challenges.

My work sits at the intersection of research and engineering — from understanding the mathematical foundations of neural networks to building systems that push the boundaries of what AI can do. Long-term, I'm working toward meaningful contributions to AGI/ASI research and development.

Currently based in Waterloo, ON — the heart of Canada's AI and tech ecosystem.
