Alumnus
I am a MASc student in the Department of Systems Design Engineering at the University of Waterloo. My research is in the area of biomechanical and biomedical engineering, with a particular interest in sports applications. I graduated from the University of Calgary with a Bachelor in Mechanical Engineering and specialization in Biomedical Engineering, with distinction. In my undergrad, I had the opportunity to work in a research team exploring genetic engineering solutions to world issues, develop GHG reducing technology with ConocoPhillips Canada, and study the relationship between biomechanics and hockey skate performance through an undergraduate level thesis project.
