In an Android Development workshop at Shopify
Repping Zynga at the University of Waterloo Partners for Employment Job Fair
I'm a Development Manager at Shopify on the Custom Storefronts team. I work on the Storefront API, a public unauthenticated GraphQL API, as well as SDKs that are built on top of it.
Before Shopify, I worked at Zynga as a Senior Software Developer. I worked both as a backend developer on Words With Friends, and as a data engineer building ETLs (and other pipelines) that transform and aggregate huge amounts of User Acquisition data. Before that, I worked at Uken Games as a full stack developer. I have a Bachelor's degree in (Software) Engineering from McMaster University, with a specialization in game design, and a Master's degree in Applied Computing from the University of Toronto.
I'm passionate about mentorship! I am a frequent visitor to University of Toronto, where I occasionally guest lecture, participate in interview workshops, and provide career advice.
