About Me

This is real, this is me, I'm exa-

Hey, thanks for stopping by! My name's Ethan, I'm a Software Engineer at Warner Music Group. I just recently graduated from the University of Toronto, which means I haven't done enough out of school to fill this about section with impressive things (and everyone else's website has a bunch of impressive things in their about sections), so here's some of the stuff I did while I was in school.

I founded the UTM Urbanism Club, I was the marketing director for the Mathematics and Computational Society at UTM, a Software Engineering intern at Wish (yes, that Wish), the head teaching assistant for CSC301, and a Software Development Intern at HSBC!

I'm interested in music, walkable cities, kayaking, and solving problems with code. If you wanna talk to me about any of that, send me a message!

You can check out my résumé below, and scroll down to see all my projects:

Learning. Networking. Growing. You can do all of these at once on Baobab, a educational social media site built for entrepreneurs. We wrote a full stack web application with a built in educational system, including assignment deliverables, real-time discussion boards, and user profiles to encourage networking. I worked as a full stack developer and founder, writing front-end and back-end code, and communicating with the product team to ensure the platform matched what our client wanted.

Learning shouldn't be confined by borders. We utilized blockchain technology to create our own cryptocurrency that can be used by students and tutors on our very own e-learning platform, which was created as a project for TOHacks 2021! I coded the cryptocurrency, and used chakra-ui to create a responsive and dynamic site. Click the image to check out our devpost page!

TLDR: Ontario's covid reponse app was so bad, even a group of kids competing in UTM's Hack The Case Hackathon/Case Competition hybrid could write a better one in three days. We used Next.js for the front end, and firebase for the back end. My focus was on the front end and presentation. We ended up taking home first place! Click the image to check out our devpost page.

This was a project designed by me and two friends for UTM's PyJaC competition. On the front end, it's a math game. On the back end, it's an algorithm that can guess mathematical operations given a set of numbers. I used dynamic programming to optimize our backend, contributed to our front end, and presented the code on competition day. We ended up winning in our category!

Breathtaking. Flawless. An absolute masterpiece.
These are just some of the words I've used to describe my very own website. I created this as an excuse to teach myself React.js and so I have a place to put my portfolio, personal projects, contact information, and pretty much anything cool I do.

Think Amazon mixed with Uber mixed with a municipal library system.
This was a large-scale trading platform created by me and my friends for UofT's CSC207 culminating project. Users can create accounts, put items up for trading, and trade items with other people. The program runs off of a database, and can support multiple users trading items in real time. Click the icon to check out our repository.

Music

This area of my website is under construction until I stop procrastinating and learn how to use Logic Pro. Check back later!

Other Stuff

Sometimes I do other stuff.

So, I sell merch. It's a long story, and part of a running joke in my life that you should definitely take a part of. If you're curious as to the full story, I'll probably write a blog post on it eventually, but you can dm me! I have a shirt with my face on it, and a hoodie with my instagram on it. I make no money off of this, it's just fun to say I have merch.
