What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters innovation in healthcare technology, offering growth opportunities and a collaborative environment.

I am a dedicated Biomedical Engineering and AI Specialist with a strong background in medical imaging and device design. My experience includes developing innovative solutions such as smart compression socks for diabetic patients and a blood analysis device. I have a proven track record in healthcare innovation, leading projects from conception to execution, and mentoring teams to achieve their goals.

Currently pursuing a Master of Applied Science in Biomedical Engineering + AI at the University of Guelph, I have honed my technical skills in Python, C++, and machine learning. My role as a Graduate Teaching Assistant allows me to share my knowledge in biomechanics while enhancing student learning through hands-on tutorials. I am passionate about utilizing technology to improve patient outcomes and am committed to advancing my expertise in this dynamic field.
