Software Engineering @ University of Waterloo

Hey, I'm Aidan.

I build agent infrastructure/currently shipping at Copperlane (YC W26)

Software Engineering student at Waterloo, focused on agent infrastructure and agent–agent interactions. I like building things that feel a little like magic — and I try to achieve greatness in everything I touch. Right now I'm helping change the mortgage industry with Copperlane in San Francisco.

By the time I graduate I hope to have lived in SF & NYC, gone on exchange in Asia, and taken enormous risks. In the meantime: lifting, hiking, building, and researching — with the long-game goal of being a farmer in my 70s.
