About Me

I'm a Research Engineer at InteraXon Inc. (Muse) in Toronto, combining my PhD in Neurophysiology with expertise in software development to create innovative solutions.

As a former co-founder & CTO of Helment and a freelance developer under the pseudonym SoftcodingForYou, I develop applications that bridge the gap between cutting-edge neuroscience research and practical technology solutions. I also work with healthcare organizations like Acupuntura Tung, bringing technology to traditional practices.
