I build and maintain secure, high-performing software systems by combining expertise in software engineering, security, and infrastructure management.
Hi, my name is
About Me
I am a computer engineering graduate from Memorial University of Newfoundland, with expertise in software engineering, security, and infrastructure management. With a passion for exploring new technologies, I enjoy tinkering in my home lab to stay up-to-date with the latest developments. Currently working as a Software Configuration Management Specialist at Kraken Robotics in Mt. Pearl, Newfoundland, I am leading the establishment of configuration management practices, processes, and policies for underwater robotic systems from the ground up. As an innovative problem solver, I am committed to leveraging my skills to create cutting-edge solutions that transform the way we interact with technology.
Here are a few technologies I've been working with recently:
- Ansible
- Docker
- Active Directory
- PowerShell
- Python
- Proxmox
Experience
I am currently working as a Software Configuration Management Specialist at Kraken Robotics in Mt. Pearl, Newfoundland. I am leading the establishment of configuration management practices, processes, and policies for underwater robotic systems from the ground up, as well as developing custom tooling to support these initiatives.
As a software developer at Frequentis Canada, I designed, developed, and maintained software applications and infrastructure critical to the safety and efficiency of air traffic control operations.
As a Junior Programmer Analyst at Innovmarine, I developed and maintained software solutions for the shipbuilding industry, automated workflow operations, and achieved significant performance improvements for existing solutions using various programming languages and frameworks such as .NET Core, Python, SQL, and VBA.

Killick-1 CubeSat - Mission Control, Team Lead
As part of the Canadian Space Agency’s Canadian CubeSat Project, I worked on Memorial University's GNSS Reflectometry CubeSat which measures sea ice. My responsibilities included designing and developing the on-board computer's flight software in C following the MISRA guidelines.
Python
Flask
Docker
Kafa ‐ Thermostat Enhancer
My teammate and I won first place in MakeUofT, which is Canada’s largest makeathon, featuring 60 teams and over 150 participants in 2021. I led the electrical and software design of our project, which was a plug-and-play thermostat enhancer that does not require installation or guidance from an expert. It was built using JavaScript, Python, Flask, MySQL, and Docker.
C++
SFML 2.1
ECS
The Revengeance
As part of a 4th year computer science course, I built a game from the engine up, using modern C++ and SFML2.1. The project was the best submission in the class. It was implemented using an Entity‑Component‑System architecture allowing for great design flexibility, and featured pathfinding algorithms, ray tracing, and the use of shaders.
