About me

Thus far I have been a software engineer (by passion and by profession), a polyglot (FR/EN/ES/PT/DE/IT/中文), an amateur pianist, a backpacker and Couchsurfer, a Toastmaster, a flying trapezist, and other unsuspected things. Born and raised in Montréal, Canada. Spent 10 years in the US. Now exploring Asia.

These days

As of May 2026, I am…

  • 🐲 Adventure traveling in the Shanghai area, then back to Montreal
  • 💻 Volunteering with Couchers.org, as a developer and localization lead (currently improving emails and events)
  • 💻 Upgrading this website with ideas from IndieWeb
  • 🎓 Studying tech topics: web auth, LLMs
  • 📚 Reading all kinds of books, especially societal non-fiction and some novels
  • 👂 Training my ear for chord progressions

Getting in touch

Want to chat about life or need code for an interesting project? I love meeting like- (and alien-)minded people. Send me an email, look me up on LinkedIn, follow me on GitHub, listen to my music on YouTube, or book a slot in my calendar.
