Analysis, research, and technical support roles

Seven roles across independent research, media analysis, architectural field work, heritage research, construction inspection, and technical tutoring. Each entry states the scope it was performed at, not the scope it could be stretched to.

01

Research and analysis

Deep Wave Research May 2020 - Present

Consultant

Toronto, ON

Independent research and analytical work spanning completed empirical studies, research-software platforms, computational engineering, and technical reporting. What follows describes methods and outputs; it makes no claim about clients, budgets, or commercial deployment.

Structures broad research questions into workable analytical plans by separating assumptions, data needs, and testable methods, then builds the pipelines that answer them and writes up what the evidence will and will not support.

Methods
Python, MATLAB, C++20, CUDA, OpenMP, CMake, PyTorch, SQL, configuration-driven experiments, automated testing, statistical inference, time-series analysis, signal processing, machine learning, LaTeX technical reporting
Outcome
Evaluates assumptions, inputs, and acceptance criteria so technical outputs can be interpreted rather than treated as black boxes, and translates technical uncertainty into concise notes and next-step options.
Outputs
Tested research pipelines, empirical reports, prototypes and research platforms, reproducible figures and tables, benchmark and sensitivity analyses, manifests, technical notes, and documented limitations.

Analyst

Toronto, ON

Short-term analytical and information-organization role covering media, performance, audience, and content information.

Organized performance and media-library information into a usable reporting structure, then read it for the audience and content patterns that could inform publishing decisions.

Methods
Database-style cataloguing, structured naming and classification, reporting-structure design, pattern analysis, owner-facing recommendations
Outcome
Converted unorganized records into summaries that could inform content and asset-management decisions, and improved retrieval and consistency across digital asset information.
Outputs
Structured records, a reporting structure, pattern summaries, decision-support notes.

02

Built environment and field

Ottawa Community Housing May 2018 - August 2018

Architectural Field Student

Ottawa, ON

Supervised field and documentation assignment in a housing and building-operations context.

Worked with a team updating fire and life safety documentation across more than one hundred properties, reconciling site observations, technical drawings, and staff input into records that matched the buildings as they actually were.

Methods
Site visits, plan review, technical drawings, AutoCAD exposure, basic Revit exposure, document production, stakeholder coordination
Outcome
Produced clear building records used to track systems, compliance, and serviceability at scale, adapting documentation work to varied building conditions and operational constraints.
Outputs
Updated records and drawing information, clarified asset information, field notes.
Architectural Conservancy of Ontario June 2017 - August 2017

Heritage Research Assistant

Toronto, ON

Built-environment and heritage research drawing on archival, interview, and site-based evidence.

Researched how Toronto's political and educational history is reflected in the architecture of its public schools, combining archival sources, subject-matter interviews, and site observation into a single record.

Methods
Archival research, expert interviews, site visits, contextual synthesis, structured records
Outcome
Connected historical context to the built environment through structured research and interpretation, synthesizing how policy, maintenance, educational need, and design values shaped public buildings over time.
Outputs
Research records, contextual synthesis, evidence organized for interpretation and reporting.
MMM Group (now WSP) January 2016 - April 2016

Senior Construction Inspector

Toronto, ON

Short-term municipal infrastructure inspection and project-documentation work in a live construction environment.

Supported plant expansion and maintenance work for TTC sites through inspection, reporting, and contractor coordination, tracking site activity, contract information, and project communications as they moved.

Methods
Plan reading, site inspection, code verification, field records, meeting documentation, contract documentation
Outcome
Helped keep field work aligned with project intent, contract requirements, and safety expectations, working alongside engineers, project managers, public-sector representatives, and contractor personnel.
Outputs
Field and meeting records, issue and decision documentation, project communications support.

03

Teaching and technical communication

Self-employed September 2019 - April 2023

Tutor

Toronto, ON

Independent tutoring in quantitative, technical, computing, and engineering subject matter.

Explained quantitative, technical, and computing concepts to learners with different backgrounds and goals, adapting examples until the formula connected to the problem actually in front of them.

Methods
One-on-one instruction, problem decomposition, worked examples, iterative feedback
Outcome
Helped learners troubleshoot their own problem-solving steps and translate abstract concepts into practical procedures, refining explanations against what the learner was actually stuck on.
Outputs
Individualized explanations, worked examples, problem-solving support.
University of Ottawa Students' Union September 2015 - April 2019

Academic Tutor

Ottawa, ON

Peer tutoring in quantitative and technical subjects within a university setting.

Tutored undergraduate students across mathematics, mechanics, programming, and physics, breaking complex problems into steps appropriate to each learner's prior knowledge.

Methods
One-on-one instruction, problem decomposition, technical communication
Outcome
Strengthened the ability to explain complex technical ideas with clarity and structure — the same skill every report on this site depends on.
Outputs
Peer learning support, explanations, problem-solving guidance.
