About me

I am a driven Software Engineer based in Toronto with a passion for information technology, web development, and information security. As an active IT evangelist, I regularly deliver master classes and career guidance lessons for high school and university students, and I am a frequent speaker at IT conferences.

My professional experience includes working for major IT companies in the UK and Canada, where I have honed my skills in designing and implementing complex infrastructure projects, as well as organizing educational events to promote knowledge sharing and professional development.

Currently, I am a Principal Software Engineer and Engineering Manager at SAPI Group Limited, where I bring my expertise in TypeScript, React, Node.js, and Golang to develop innovative solutions that improve user experiences. This role allows me to apply my technical skills to create high-performance solutions that enhance customer engagement and drive revenue growth.

I thrive in collaborative environments and enjoy tackling complex problems with my team. Whether working on large-scale projects or mentoring aspiring professionals, I am dedicated to delivering results that exceed expectations.
