Warren Uhrich

Web Development Diploma Instructor - Edmonton

Warren, an Edmonton-born graduate of NAIT's Digital Media & I.T. program, has always had a passion for computing, has settled on web development in 2012, and has been steadily building websites of all shapes and sizes ever since. As time progressed his roles offered him opportunities for mentoring others and he began seeking out more opportunities to work with, and grow, new junior developers.

Alex Bymoen

Web Development Diploma Instructor - Calgary

Alex has been working as a developer professionally for the past 5 years, after having graduated from the University of Calgary with a degree in Computer Science with distinction. He grew up loving computers; tearing them down to see what was inside and then seeing if he could put them back together. He started building websites when he was just a wee 13 year old and never stopped. Recently he has enjoyed building VR games and learning Flutter to develop native phone applications and websites. Everyday Alex gets to share his immense knowledge of web development and passion for anything and everything in tech with our Web Development students. 

Azal Abedi

Operations Manager, STUDENT & INDUSTRY RELATIONS - Calgary & Edmonton

Azal got his BComm in 2013 from Grant MacEwan University. Since 2016, he's been applying his major - Organizational Management - to the operational management of our two campuses. Azal works closely with InnoTech's Administrative team in ensuring that all staff and students’ operational and administrative needs are met. When not plugging away behind the scenes, he's front and centre, supporting the students of our Edmonton campus with their successful schooling journey, as well as their plunge into their new chosen career path. 

Aside from his love for organizational order, Azal is also a huge movie-lover and our resident film buff at InnoTech. This passion for cinema from a very early age fueled the need to grow his knowledge in videography and directing, which he also practices on the side.
