Resume, Personal History, and Present Status

Here is a link to my resume!

In a past life I was a researcher at the University of Waterloo. My specialization was in black hole thermodynamics and quantum information theory. During and after graduate school I moonlighted as a bartender. The skills I learned in that trade have been just as enriching as my technical expertise. I lived and worked in Waterloo, ON, from my time as an undergraduate until the summer of 2024. I now reside in Montreal.

I was born in downtown Toronto, and raised in Fredericton, New Brunswick. The streetcorner I lived on in Toronto is mentioned in André Alexis' Fifteen Dogs. Aside the above, I've worked as a tutor, a troubleshooter, a consultant, a web developer, as a full-stack construction labourer (built a whole house one semester!) and as a researcher in optical physics for both public and private organizations.
