01Master’s research project
Speech Denoising
I spent a summer training a U-Net to hear past the noise, then measured it against four classic filters.

Microservices on GKE
Two small Node.js services on Kubernetes, with Terraform and Cloud Build handling the setup and the deploys.

Starknet, open source
I helped move a Cairo VM from JavaScript to TypeScript and built features for two Starknet apps.

About
I like taking things apart and building my own.
I’m Kenny, a software engineer living in Halifax. I did my master’s at Dalhousie, where my research project taught a neural network to clean up noisy speech. These days I build whole products, from the interface down to the cloud setup, and I pitch in on open source when I can.
