Hi, I'm Charlie.

Full-stack developer. I build React and .NET products, most recently at Virtek Vision and Geotab. I graduated from the University of Waterloo in April 2026 (BASc, Computer Engineering, Honours with Distinction). My capstone was TalusCore, an ankle-worn fitness tracker.

LatelyIn September 2026 I went to Taiwan with the University of Waterloo Dragon Boat Club for the Club Crew World Championships (CCWC).

TalusCore · capstoneteam of 4 · 2026

A screenless, ankle-worn fitness tracker for places where a wrist device isn't allowed, like sports, medical settings and workplaces with wristwear restrictions. An ESP32 reads motion, heart-rate/SpO₂ and barometric sensors and publishes over MQTT to a NestJS + PostgreSQL backend. A Python service adds peer comparisons and fitness insights with K-means clustering, and a React Native app shows live stats and history. We validated the system end to end and iterated through a few different designs.

03About

I hope to build software that is both fun and impactful.

Outside of of the workshop I paddle (dragonboat) and toss discs. I get from point A to B on my trusty longboard or by running on the trails whenever possible.

I love to play music and snap photos, and I love to explore the software in that space (Logic, DaVinci Resolve, Darktable - hit me up if you find any cool tools!): projects I've produced and played in ↗ and recordings I played on ↗.
