01 · ABOUT

Tech, with a business brain

I'm a Computer Science student at UBC with a Commerce minor. My anticipated graduation date is December 2027. I like problems that sit between engineering and business: what to build, and how to build it well.

Most of my work so far has been in scalable systems, developer tooling, and data-driven applications. Long term, I want to build the software that quietly powers how people work, collaborate, and decide.

I TA CPSC 304 (Relational Databases) and co-founded UBC Motion, a club that staffs student teams to build software for non-profits.

Things I've built

01
Hunter
Job alerts that beat the crowd, plus a private dashboard to run the whole search.
Polls Greenhouse, Ashby, Lever, Workday and a dozen other job boards plus curated GitHub lists every few minutes, dedupes and filters new postings, and sends matches to Telegram within minutes. Finds new company boards on its own, sends a weekly summary, and publishes an encrypted dashboard on GitHub Pages with a job board, a drag-and-drop application tracker and Claude-powered resume tailoring. Runs entirely on GitHub Actions; no server.
