I study how minds work, then I build systems that think.

Cognitive science at the University of Toronto, with a computational focus that sits at the intersection of neuroscience, psychology, and mathematics. My goal is understanding intelligence at its foundation. Not just modeling it, but grasping what makes it possible.

In practice, that means I build things. Production data pipelines at Loblaw. Automation tooling at Werrv. AI-assisted transcription systems at the Samara Centre for Democracy that are making parliamentary proceedings more accessible. Python, GCP, Airflow, BigQuery, CI/CD. All run in prod, not in sandboxes.

Most engineers optimize functions. I'm chasing the function that optimizes itself: consciousness, cognition, and the architectures where human and machine intelligence converge.
