After having studied music and computer science at the University of Victoria, I went on to expand my horizons by learning about web design and mobile app development at North Island College, as well as learning about video game AI on my own time. In my free time I like to play tenor saxophone in a community jazz band, read, and play videogames, with a particular fondness for RPGs.
