Interested in the parts of a system users never see.
This past summer I worked at FGF Brands on Cerebro, the platform that monitors production across its 22 bakery plants. The work covered OEE telemetry models, Power BI reporting, and SQL diagnostics against a production database carrying long-standing inconsistencies. Before that: research at the University of Toronto, a web development internship, and a season repairing e-scooters.
Most of the projects below began as questions the documentation did not answer: how a rate limiter stays correct under concurrent load across six APIs, or what a password manager actually does with a user's key. I am in my third year at Queen's and looking for a software engineering internship. If you are hiring, please email me.
Stock screener with a six-source data fallback chain.
Six market-data APIs behind one FastAPI backend. A Redis Lua script enforces each source's rate limit atomically, so a burst of traffic falls through the chain rather than failing on a 429. Candles write asynchronously to monthly-partitioned Postgres with per-resolution Redis TTLs; RSI, MACD, and Bollinger Bands are computed client-side. A Vitest suite covers the fallback chain, the indicators, and the limiter.
Password analyzer and encrypted vault.
Built to understand how a password manager such as 1Password works internally. The analyzer computes entropy, detects keyboard walks and date patterns, and scores passwords from 0 to 100. Each vault entry has its own AES-256-GCM key (PBKDF2, 600,000 iterations), breach checks use HaveIBeenPwned's k-anonymity model so no password leaves the machine, and authentication is bcrypt with rotating JWTs and TOTP 2FA, all covered by a pytest suite.
Local-first browser session tracker.
A session tracker that operates entirely offline. The Chrome extension stores everything locally and the server and CLI are optional. A privacy guard scans each page for password and card fields before anything is captured; blocked pages are logged without a URL, title, or content.
Drum machine for the browser.
A 16-step sequencer and melody pads scheduled with Tone.js, with five visualizer modes drawn live from the Web Audio analyser node.
Inspected, diagnosed, and repaired e-scooters; field-tested new features for the product and engineering teams.
Administered a polling station on federal election day.
Developed and shipped web applications for small-business clients using JavaScript, HTML, and CSS; improved page performance by 40% through asset minification, image compression, and deferred script loading.
Bachelor of Computer Science (Honours), Mathematics minor. GPA 3.8.
Email is the best way to reach me. I read every message. Away from a keyboard, I am usually playing hockey, out on a trail, or travelling.
