I completed my undergraduate studies in Chemical Engineering at the Royal Military College of Canada as a multisport varsity athlete, having been recognized as a U-Sports Academic All Canadian. I was then employed with the Department of National Defence for over a decade, where I gained extensive operational and project management experience. I joined Materials as Machines Lab in 2023 as a MASc student in Materials Engineering. Supervised by Dr. Irina Garces and Dr. Eng Kuan Moo, we aim to use melt electrowriting as a method for fabricating bio-inspired structures. My research interests include additive manufacturing, biomaterials and biomechanics. If I’m not at the lab, you can find me at the gym or chatting over a good cup of coffee.
