What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters growth, collaboration, and innovation in technology.

I am a dedicated software developer with a strong educational foundation in both information technology and business administration. My career has been focused on developing and maintaining technology infrastructure, capital management strategies, and enhancing client experiences. I am passionate about leveraging my skills to contribute to the growth of organizations.

Currently, I operate as a web developer at All-Terrain Capital Corp., where I specialize in custom web development for entrepreneurial projects and small-scale business clients. My technical expertise includes tools such as React, Ruby on Rails, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, which I utilize to create efficient and user-friendly web applications.

In addition to my development work, I have experience in technical support and financial analysis, having worked as a Technical Support Agent at BIS Safety Software and as a Commercial Banking Analyst at the Bank of Montreal. These roles have equipped me with a unique blend of technical and financial acumen, allowing me to approach challenges with a comprehensive perspective.
