02 / Profile

Technology fluency. Human understanding.

Three perspectives shape how I work: hands-on technology experience, the study and practice of psychology and counselling, and more than a decade of professional interpretation across complex human settings.

Interpretation has shown me how healthcare, legal, community and social services, and education systems meet people at consequential moments. Psychology and counselling trained me to listen closely, recognize context, and explain complex information with care.

Technology gives me the tools to turn that perspective into dependable software, thoughtful systems, clear analysis, and practical support. That combination is especially valuable wherever software, systems, and people intersect.
