About

I am a strategist, scientist, and former academic researcher in biomedical engineering. I enjoy the puzzle of understanding complex systems and trying to improve them.

I earned my PhD in Biomedical Engineering with a collaborative specialization in neuroscience at the University of Toronto and conducted my research at Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital. In my academic career, I researched the role of sensory feedback in motor control, with focuses in speech development and paediatric rehabilitation. I studied models of speech and hearing, built helpful technologies, and investigated ways to make rehabilitation fun and effective. You may have read about my work in Smithsonian Magazine, heard it mentioned on the podcast 99% Invisible, or seen me featured in hEr VOLUTION’s #CanWomenSTEM150 campaign.
