Hi! I am a technical writer with experience working in a supply chain solutions software company, and I’m from Toronto, Canada. I’m interested in learning about world cultures (especially food), consumer electronics, and cats. You can usually catch me learning about something random that I’m curious about.

I’m a recent graduate from the technical writer program at Algonquin College. I used to write technical documents by following common writing conventions in my head; and being in the program has shown me why they exist/are important. Before writing a document, I carefully consider the user who the document is intended for, and write based on their goals to accomplish them.

I am a graduate from University of Toronto, with a degree in English, Media Studies, and Linguistics.

I have experience as a phonetic communication instructor from St. George International College; I taught learners of various age and cultures how to perfect the Canadian accent with IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet). I explained complex linguistic concepts such as glottal stops, flaps, and voicing in an approachable way; giving learners knowledge to keep improving far beyond the length of my class.
