Educational background
I received my bachelor of science from the University of Waterloo majoring in biotechnology and economics and my masters of bioinformatics from the University of Guelph.
My past accomplishments
During my masters, I had the opportunity to do research at a Toronto-based drug discovery company called Cyclica Inc. where I built a pipeline to detect and calculate statistical pathway enrichment based on proteome screening results. Prior to joining GEMINI, I worked at BMO Capital Markets as a technology analyst where I was a lead analyst on several projects like automating reconciliation between trading systems and regulatory reporting.
When I feel most inspired
I get to collaborate with people who are equally passionate about their work!
A few of my favourite things
Shopping at farmer’s markets and used bookstores
Playing board games with friends
Experimenting in the kitchen with a new recipe or trying a new restaurant
