Hey, its Raid!

About

I'm a front-end developer from Toronto and Ottawa with a history of working in Agile team environments. My background as a Product Manager helps me put myself in the user's shoes. My previous experience as a financial planner gives me sense of empathy and compassion for understanding the needs of the end user. I find excitement in getting deep into the logic of an application, similar to helping a client navigate difficult financial decisions!

When I'm not hunched over my laptop, you can find me exploring parts of the city, planning my next camping trip or attempting to swing my golf clubs. I'm a fan of stand-up comedy, cats, and football (not all three at the same time). Je parle français, aussi!
