I explore data the way I explore a new system — with curiosity, patience, and the right tools. Rooted in analytics, reaching for AI, built with code. Recent George Brown College graduate (Applied A.I. and Cloud Computing, Dean's List) — now shipping on-device AI and looking for my next data & cloud role in Toronto.

4+# years in data & dev

Things I've built

Machine learning, analytics, and AI — all open source on GitHub.

airplane mode · LLM still answering

offline_ai

Android app that runs large language models (0.5B–8B) entirely on-device — chat, chat-with-your-PDF through a RAG pipeline I built from scratch, and hands-free voice mode. No cloud, no API keys; works in airplane mode. Publicly released v1.0.
