My Story
Hello!
I’m a passionate and curious researcher with a multidisciplinary background and over eight years of experience spanning psychology, healthcare, data analysis, and policy-making. I hold an undergraduate degree from the University of Waterloo, where I pursued a double major in Biomedical Science and Psychology, as well as a Master’s in Bioinformatics from the University of Guelph.
​
I’ve conducted research across four universities: the University of Waterloo, the University of Ottawa, the University of Guelph, and IPB University in Indonesia. My work has also extended beyond academia, engaging with communities in Patek and Lebih Village in Indonesia, and contributing to industry research at Abbott.
​
Driven by a love for learning and exploration, I thrive on trying new things and deepening my understanding of the world. Whether through sports, music, drama, or other creative pursuits, I enjoy embracing diverse experiences and forming meaningful connections along the way.

Drama
I've been passionate about theatre for as long as I can remember. I served as president of the Drama Club at Atlantic Hall Secondary School and later took to the stage in several plays at the University of Waterloo.
Music
Over the years, I’ve explored a variety of instruments, including the piano, trumpet, saxophone, and clarinet. I hold a Grade 3 certification in music theory from The Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM) and I'm currently diving into the exciting journey of learning guitar.
