About Me

~$cat bio.md

I'm a DevOps & Infrastructure Engineer based in Vancouver, finishing my Computing Science degree at Simon Fraser University. Currently building healthcare infrastructure at Tenzr Health, where I work on everything from database optimization to production AI systems.

What makes me different? I came to infrastructure through customer success. Before I was optimizing database connections, I was in client meetings translating technical capabilities into business value. That background shapes how I approach infrastructure work—I don't just make systems faster, I connect improvements to user impact and document them for knowledge transfer.

My recent work includes reducing database latency by 99.4% through connection pooling optimization and building Tenzr's first production RAG system—an AI exercise plan generator that transforms 1,500+ exercises into personalized rehabilitation plans. Both projects came with comprehensive documentation and reproducible benchmarking tools.

I've worked across healthcare, energy, and B2B SaaS domains, with experience in both Azure and AWS cloud environments. Whether it's configuring Azure B2C tenants, deploying Lambda functions, or setting up vector databases for semantic search—I focus on building infrastructure that's not just functional, but observable and maintainable.

Measure Everything

Performance improvements without metrics are just opinions. I benchmark before and after, document methodology, and make results reproducible.

Document for Transfer

Code is temporary, knowledge is permanent. I write documentation that helps the next engineer understand not just what, but why.

Connect Tech to Impact

Years in customer success taught me to translate technical work into business value. I build for users, not just systems.

~/personal$ls interests/

Outside of work, I'm interested in personal knowledge management systems (this portfolio is backed by an Obsidian vault), voice-to-text tooling for Linux, and geospatial data analysis. I run Fedora as my daily driver and believe in using AMD GPUs on Linux despite the pain.

I'm currently exploring what comes after graduation in January 2026—whether that's a full-time infrastructure role or continuing to build towards founding something of my own.

Let's Connect

I'm always interested in discussing infrastructure challenges, performance optimization, or potential opportunities.
