I am a Research Officer in the Education Scholarship Program within the Department of Family and Community Medicine (DFCM) at the University of Toronto. I work closely with faculty, scientists, students and staff at DFCM as well as the Wilson Centre to manage and support ongoing research projects and research related activities.

I completed a Master's degree in Nutrition for Global Health from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. Prior to joining the field of Medical Education, I worked in Cambodia and Bangladesh on creating sustainable nutrition-related interventions as well as researching maternal and child health. Presently, my research interests include understanding the role of burnout and well-being within new family physicians. I am very keen to work on projects that combine my passion for Global Health with Medical Education.

I am an avid reading (mostly thrillers/true crime), and love the feeling of a good book in my hands with a cup of tea. On weekends, you can either find me with a camera in hand photographing people or exploring the diverse neighbourhoods Toronto has to offer.
