Hello, world.

I'm Patrick — I connect
complex systems and make
them reliable.

Electrical & software engineering graduate from McGill, now a product and integration engineer. I've spent my career wiring together complex systems and keeping them dependable — most recently on payments at Stripe, and as the founder of multiple side-project startups. Off the clock, I'm a football fan and avid snowboarder.
