About Me

I'm an AI/ML Engineer at Ema, building the AutoBuilder, our conversational workflow builder that generates and orchestrates multi-agent workflows from natural language. I architected it from zero to production, and it's now used by business users to cut workflow creation and iteration from hours to seconds.

I recently completed my Master of Science in Applied Computing at the University of Toronto, focusing on computer systems and large language models. Previously, I worked as a backend software developer at Kijiji and contributed as both a research assistant and teaching assistant at U of T.

I specialize in designing custom AI systems that are efficient, reliable, and scalable for real-world business needs. Outside of work, I enjoy music -- I sing and play piano and guitar.
