Karina Moffat

Hi! I'm Karina, I love tackling complex problems and using tech to find a solution. This theme followed me throughout university and continues to drive my career. I'm currently a Software Engineer in Toronto, with both startup and enterprise experience. I'm a proud Queen's Engineering grad (computer!) and in my free time love to read, bike, and play any intramural sport that I can find.
