Educator.
Tech Entrepreneur.
Lifelong learner.

I teach emerging technology and build AI automation systems for founders. I also teach violin because it keeps me honest about what it means to actually practice something.


A little bit of everything

All of it deliberate.

I have spent over a decade in tech, from studying computer science at Acadia University, to co-founding one of Atlantic Canada's earliest blockchain ventures, to building AI automation systems for service-based founders today.

But technology has never been the whole story. I have been playing violin since I was young, and I now teach it too. There is something about music that requires the same discipline and patience that good systems work demands: show up, practice, iterate, improve.

I became a mother in 2024. That shifted everything in the best possible way, including how seriously I take the idea of protecting your time.

AI did not give me more hours. It made the hours I have count.

I recently had the pleasure of attending two workshops on Website Fundamentals and AI Automation led by Mrugakshee, as part of the Digital Nova Scotia Program, 2024. The workshops allowed us to explore web development fundamentals and advanced AI automation techniques, presented in a way that was both practical and engaging. 📊 Mrugakshee, expertly covered essential topics like website structure, coding fundamentals, and the integration of automation tools powered by AI to enhance website functionality and efficiency. 

Where I spend my time.

Two things that take up most of my hours, and most of my attention.

Mothering & working

Motherhood made my work sharper.

I think more carefully about what is worth building. I say no faster. And I design systems that protect time, because time is the only thing you do not get back.

AI did not give me more hours. It made the hours I have count.
Off the keyboard

Life outside the work.

Tennis has been a constant. Bouldering taught me that the only move is the next move. And pickleball has a hold on me right now. Sport has always been how I reset and how I stay sharp. The focus required on a wall or a court is not all that different from the focus required to build something that actually works.
