Open to internships and freelance work

I like solving problems, in code and in how models think.

I'm Andrew, a computer science student at the University of Alberta. I split my time between mechanistic interpretability research on language models and shipping full-stack software, and I'm building two ventures of my own on the side.

    Full-Stack Developer · Remote

    Nov 2025 – Present

    I lead a team of three at EW Analytics, building across GIS portals, management systems and automation tooling in GeoNode, Google Apps Script, React and Java. One of the bigger wins was automation software that cut deployment time by 40% by eliminating repetitive manual workflows. I've also customized the MapStore React UI and built repeatable PostGIS/GeoServer data pipelines that cut manual publishing time in half.

04 · Who's asking

About

I'm a computer science student at the University of Alberta who likes solving problems. That's the constant, more than any one stack or subfield. Lately that's meant mechanistic interpretability research on one side and full-stack product work on the other.

I was recently part of the Edmonton Unlimited Student Founders Launch program, and I'm the founder of two prelaunch ventures, heavy-spoon.com and instafurnish.shop. Still getting there, but building in public toward launch.

Day to day, I work at EW Analytics building software solutions to people's problems. Outside of code, I play guitar for fun.
