I'm Justin, a software developer in Toronto.
Welcome to my website.

About me

Software Developer / Music Lover / Gamer / Consumer of BBQ Foods

I come from a family of engineers and grew up with the internet - it shouldn't be a surprise to anybody that I gravitated towards math and science and chose a career working with computers. I like being creative and I like problem solving, so I think software development is a perfect fit for me.

In 2016, I graduated from Western University with a degree in Software Engineering, and I currently work at SPS Commerce. Most of my projects now are web apps, but I have experience working on a variety of cool things, ranging from embedded systems to machine learning and computer vision (thanks Western!).

But enough of that nerd stuff - I also have a passion for music and graphic design. I have been playing bass for over 10 years, and have even had the opportunity to perform at Roy Thompson Hall and the 2012 London Olympics with my high school symphonic band. As for graphic design, I have taught myself tools like Photoshop and Illustrator through experimentation (in other words, I'm not an expert), and I like to create things when I feel inspired. Some examples of my work can be seen on this page.
