I build things that
make decisions.

It started with a spreadsheet. I was tracking six credit cards and about 60,000 Aeroplan points by hand, trying to work out which card to swipe for what. No Canadian tool did the math, so I built one. That became MapleRewards, now live at maplerewards.app: the first native Canadian rewards optimizer, ranking 94 cards and 41 loyalty programs by real dollars returned.

That is the pattern for most of what I make. I hate inefficiency, so I build the thing that removes it. At TD Bank I found a manual data-entry process in security operations, rebuilt it in Power Automate, and cut the latency by 90 percent. When I got interested in prediction markets, I built an autonomous agent that trades them with real money and its own risk limits. When I wanted a world worth watching, I wrote a god simulator from scratch.

Somewhere in there is the Computer Science degree at McMaster (Honours, minor in Statistics), but the credential is not the point. I reach for Go when performance matters and Next.js when iteration speed does, and I build the hard parts myself: a Raft consensus implementation, an audio-fingerprinting engine, a game engine with no engine. What I care about is shipping things real people use, and keeping them honest once they work.
