Hardware Designer & Maker of things

I am the Making of Things

With a deep-rooted passion for robotics, I am a Computer Engineer by trade and have considerable interest for electronics. It is a well balance mix of mechanical, electrical and software engineering. Through my involvement in consumer product development and delivery, I became fascinated with knowledge/information management within an organization. I make it my mandate that my team has access to tools and knowledge for a smooth development lifecycle. There is a great deal of satisfaction when the team have access to the resources they need as a result of good planning.

I am a Senior Product Engineer working on a new experimental tech. We are developing a medical device designed to detect specific diseases by analyzing biomarkers carried through the respiratory pathway. The successful implementation of this technology promises to significantly enhance accessibility to disease detection without resorting to invasive medical procedures.

My overarching goal is to have a positive impact on the community as well as build healthy and inclusive teams.

Community Contribution

I made it my priority to solve a problem in my local community: the lack of space and access to tools for projects. Thus, I have been working on pooling the ressources into local workshops to better serve the community.

IEEE Concordia

The best student ressource & engineering lab on campus open to all

IEEE Concordia's mandate is to provide an electronic laboratory for students to eliminate the enormous amount of paperwork needed to get access to a university lab

Northsec

The biggest in-person CTF in North America

The conference covers diverse topics such as network security, software and/or hardware exploitation, application security, reverse engineering, malware and cryptography.

Helios Makerspace

The 1st Makerspace in Montreal

The Makerspace's mission is to provide the tools to the community necessary to materialize an idea by providing access to welding, metalworking, woodworking, electronics and 3D printing.
