About me
Currently pursuing a non-thesis Masters in Computer Science at the Georgia Institute of Technology via their distance-learning program. I have completed 9 out of 10 courses in the Machine Learning specialization with one elective remaining in the fall of 2019.
The Georgia Tech program has been one of the best experiences of my life, the coursework is project heavy, the student body is diverse & engaged, and the quality of instruction is world-class. More information on the program can be seen in this video. PBS NewsHour video
Prior to this program, I worked in the video game industry as a project manager and localization producer both in the Bay Area and Vancouver. These roles were fast-paced and required the highest quality of work to uphold major brands such as Star Wars and X-Men.
My undergraduate degree is a B.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Alberta. I was accepted into their Co-op program and gained valuable work experience in the pulp & paper industry as well as with a power utility.
Currently I reside in Vancouver, BC.
