Hey there! My name's Dillon. I'm a third-year Computer Science student seeking software engineering opportunities for June 2026 new grads. I enjoy building websites and creative problem solving. My focus is full-stack development. My current skills include: TypeScript/JavaScript, React, Node.js, Next.js & Express, Tailwind CSS, SQL/PostgreSQL, Python, Flask, Pandas and PyTorch.
About Me
I decided to pursue my passion for programming after being laid off from Shopify support in 2023. I've enjoyed solving problems with software since my early teens but I had never formally studied computer science. I enrolled full-time at Carleton University in the fall of 2024 and have been studying full-time since. In addition to my coursework, I have been learning front-end development and working on some independent projects in my free time. I'm looking for part-time internship opportunities ahead of my May 2026 graduation where I can continue to develop my skills and excel as an important part of your team.
When I'm not programming I like to read, play video games and listen to hip-hop music. I am always learning and familiarizing myself with new technologies. Most recently I have been teaching myself C++ and embedded software development. I also have a background in Neuroscience, which I studied at Carleton University before enrolling in Computer Science. You can read my undergraduate research here. I continue to consume Neuroscience literature and have a keen interest in human-computer interactions and brain-computer interfaces.
My Projects
Fantasy Hockey Database App
This is a Next.js app that allows users to make requests to a PostgreSQL database and view historical league data for a fantasy hockey league. I built the database myself and imported the fantasy stats with Python/Pandas. The website uses dynamic URLs to fetch appropriate data from the database.
- TypeScript
- React
- Next.js
- SQL
- PostgreSQL
- Prisma
- Tailwind
Draft Lottery Simulator
This is a Qt widget application made with C++ that simulates a draft lottery for a fantasy hockey league. The GitHub repo also contains an Inno Setup script I wrote to create an installer for the application.

Face Mask Detection AI
This is a two phase project I'm working on where I trained an AI to detect whether or not someone is wearing a face mask using a convolutional neural network. After training the model I built a simple API using Flask that allows the model to be deployed to the web to receive requests. The project includes a simple front-end where users can upload images for the model to make predictions about. Please note the live demo may take some time to respond as a limitation of the free hosting.
