GeoTrans Labs, University of AlbertaSep 2025 - Present
Building GeoTrans Lab’s road-surface and tire-friction monitoring platform end-to-end - ingesting traffic and weather data, running Swin Transformer inference on batched imagery, and streaming results into mapping dashboards so our stakeholders can spot slippage risks in real time. I tuned the ONNX + FastAPI pipeline with GPU acceleration to drop latency to under five seconds for 144 images and layered in Gemini-based preprocessing so we can skip frames with untrackable conditions, pushing inference accuracy to 94% across five surface types. Everything ships through Dockerized deployments on Cloud Run backed by GitHub Actions, which cut our setup time by almost half.
VSF HoldingsJun 2025 - Aug 2025
Partnered closely with VSF’s executives to design and ship a full-stack investment analytics platform on Vercel using Next.js, TypeScript, and Node/FastAPI services. I owned the UX for investor dashboards, session analytics, and CRM/KYC onboarding flows, which ultimately tripled average visit duration and slashed manual onboarding work by 60% thanks to automated ETL pipelines in Python and SQL. Weekly Agile sprints ran like clockwork - design reviews, Figma prototyping, and stakeholder demos every Friday kept us shipping on time for every release.
IntelMay 2025 - Aug 2025
As an Intel AI Student Ambassador I led hands-on workshops that walked 300+ learners through the AI Analytics Toolkit, Modin, and XGBoost optimizations - everything from profiling data pipelines to squeezing extra accuracy out of boosted trees on Intel hardware. Outside the classroom I build demo projects on Developer Cloud, publish performance case studies, and share ready-to-run notebooks on Hugging Face so the community can replicate the optimizations.
HeadstarterMay 2025 - Aug 2025
As a Software Engineering Resident at Headstarter, I’m building 14+ full-stack and AI/ML projects focused on deploying real-world tools. My work spans LLM chaining, hyperparameter tuning, and fine-tuning over 10+ models, all with production-ready pipelines. I’ve contributed to both Python-based backends and TypeScript frontends, and have been mentored by engineers from Google, Tesla, and Two Sigma.
Computer Engineering Club, University of AlbertaSep 2024 – Present
As VP External I run industry outreach for Alberta’s busiest student tech organization - lining up sponsors for Aether, HackED, and HackED Beta, co-hosting multi-club workshops and hackathons, and building the events site that keeps 2,500+ students in the loop. Before stepping into the VP role I served as a Junior Executive for the 2024–25 term, representing second-year Computer Engineering students, mentoring incoming members, and spearheading the initial sponsor pipeline that we still rely on today.
AlbertaSATSep 2024 – Dec 2024
Contributed to AlbertaSAT’s 2026 CubeSat launch as a software member on an Agile squad, pairing with electrical and mechanical teams to vet subsystem code long before we risked hardware testing. I built Rust-based simulators for more than two dozen components, helping uncover four critical integration issues and keeping the mission timeline intact.
