CS Graduate and Systems Consultant - providing operational IT support and exploring the edges of tech and business.
About Me.
I'm a Computer Science graduate from TMU - a tech enthusiast based in Downtown Toronto who doesn't believe in doing just one thing. I've worn multiple hats across tech, retail, sales, and AI training, and I bring that multi-dimensional perspective to every role I take on.
Currently, I work full-time as a Systems Consultant at Long View Systems, helping organizations navigate and solve IT challenges with precision and clarity. My ability to connect technical depth with business thinking is what sets me apart.
Outside work, I'm passionate about photography, video editing, business domains, and travelling. I find stories in frames, patterns in markets, and energy in new places. My life runs on one word: HUSTLE.

Toronto Metropolitan University · August 2022 | August 2023 | August 2024
Three years running, I showed up every August to help first-year students find their footing at TMU. As part of the Orientation team, I assisted with activities, answered every question about university life imaginable, and made sure incoming students felt welcome, confident, and ready to hustle.

Life So Far…
4 min read·Personal
If I had to describe my life in one word, it would be colourful. Not always perfect, but always meaningful.
I believe deeply in growth, positivity, great connections, and creativity. Every stage of my life - from childhood, to school, the incredible chaos of university, and now the real world of work — has handed me a different lesson.
Life feels complete when I'm surrounded by family and good friends - the kind of people who celebrate your wins, sit with you in your losses, and make ordinary Tuesday evenings feel like something worth remembering.
Outside of the hustle, you'll find me on a long drive on a scenic route, windows down, Bollywood playlist at full volume. I love exploring new places - every new experience adds a layer to who I am.

Photography - Capturing Life, One Frame at a Time
3 min read·Photography
Photography isn't just a hobby - it's how I slow down and pay attention. I love capturing nature, golden-hour light, quiet streets, and fleeting moments.
I run an Instagram page - @_meet.patel.creations_ where I feature my photography work. Come take a look!
Some trips exist beyond the photos. The Alberta trip with my boys was one of those. No agenda, no stress - just mountains, glaciers, open roads, and the kind of laughter that makes your stomach hurt.
We drove into Banff on a sunny morning and it felt like stepping into a painting. The turquoise lakes - Louise, Moraine, Peyto looked too perfect to be real.
Highlights: the Banff Gondola, the Columbia Icefield, the Skywalk, kayaking, a movie night under the stars, and long drives on Highway 93 with the best views and better company.

Orientation Leader - OWeek at TMU
4 min read·2022 · 2023 · 2024 · TMU
Three years in a row. Three OWeeks. Three cohorts of first-year students who reminded me how exciting and terrifying starting university feels.
Being an Orientation Leader at TMU was one of the most rewarding things I did. OWeek was pure energy - activities, games, icebreakers, movie nights, good food, and that unforgettable trip to Toronto Islands.
Would do it all over again without a second thought.
