About Us
The Mind(s) Behind VibeCheckList
I'm a software developer passionate about building technology that makes a positive, real-world impact. Currently, my primary focus is VibeCheckList, an app designed to support people with ADHD with their task initiation challenges. Before studying at Western Washington University, I worked at an autonomous trading startup in Vancouver, BC, which helped hone my leadership skills and sparked my drive for building impactful tools alongside a dedicated team.
At WWU, I'm pursuing an Interdisciplinary Concentration combining software development, social entrepreneurship, and psychology. Building a startup is a collective effort, and VibeCheckList continues to grow thanks to the incredible insights of my university mentors and the continuous feedback from my peers.
Outside of VibeCheckList, I serve as an Entrepreneurship and Innovation Fellow. Whether I'm mentoring other students, building connections between students and our community coaches, or organizing our quarterly showcases, I thrive as a part of a supportive entrepreneurial ecosystem like the one here in Bellingham.
My Background
2024-Now
VibeCheckList & Western Washington University
Upon returning to university, this time at WWU, I was searching for ways to use my skills to help others with ADHD. In my first quarter at WWU, I joined the Entrepreneurship & Innovation Program, interviewed members of the ADHD community about their biggest challenges, and designed VibeCheckList to help solve them.
2021-2024
Seedir Technologies
After an ADHD diagnosis catalyzed by struggling with online courses, I decided to leave UBC. I joined Seedir Technologies, a Vancouver, BC startup, as the Lead Developer & Head of Trading, where I was responsible for designing and implementing fully autonomous stock trading systems and the machine learning models that powered them.

University of British Columbia
After graduating high school at 16, I moved from Holly Springs, North Carolina to Vancouver, British Columbia to begin my higher education as a UBC Engineering Student. After UBC I hoped to pursue graduate school, eventually launching a career in AI Safety and Policy.
