About

I develop materials and design processes to solve problems - whether it be developing affordable biomedical devices, investigating strategies to increase energy storage capacity, or optimizing the performance of sustainable catalysts.

I obtained both my Bachelor’s degree in Nanotechnology Engineering and my Master’s degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Waterloo. During my studies, I gained practical experience in a broad range of research areas, including catalysis, thin films, composite materials, medical sensors, and energy storage.

I developed material systems and processing technologies for novel polymeric heart valve implants during my doctorate at ETH Zurich. I’m also very passionate about science policy, communication, and translation! You can read more about my outreach projects and research, or see my resume.
