I modernize enterprise platforms and lead teams delivering scalable Java, Next.js, data, and AI solutions.
What I'm looking for
I've delivered enterprise solutions for Western University, J.D. Power, TD Bank, and 3M Canada across financial services, manufacturing, and higher education. I bridge business requirements and technical execution through systems architecture, data strategy, and practical delivery leadership.
At J.D. Power, I led developers and architected a Next.js GUI framework that modernized legacy user interfaces while retiring obsolete front-end technologies. At TD Bank, I designed end-to-end solutions, established a support team for metadata management and data profiling, and improved build lifecycle efficiency through modern development practices and web-service support libraries.
I'm hands-on with Java, Python, React, SQL, data warehousing, BI reporting, DevOps, and AI tools. I enjoy mentoring developers, improving SDLC processes, and building scalable foundations that reduce delivery friction and costs.
