apropos

This was my profile picture for a number of years. It is no longer, but I keep it here as it matches my website theme.

Hi! I’m JJ. I go by apropos (among other names) on the Internet.

I am a linguist by trade, living and working in Vancouver, British Columbia, by the Salish Sea. I am also a hobbyist programmer and a mathematics enthusiast – having majored in mathematics, minored in linguistics, and having closely studied programming languages and their formal theory throughout my undergraduate degree (BSc UBC ’26).

I am looking for full-time employment starting September 2026.
