I'm a Software Engineer and Professional Trainer with a passion for building systems and products that help others in profound, meaningful ways.

I'm currently having fun with Big Data at Shopify, the most incredible organization I've ever worked with.

I'm also having a blast leading ScalaQuest, the game to learn Scala. I hope you have as much fun playing it.

I also organize Scala Up North, the first and only Scala conference in Canada.

I love teaching and spent a few years working with Lightbend on training others on how to use Scala, Akka and Play to write elegant, solid and maintainable code.
