Bio
I joined USP as a Lecturer in Precision Mental Health in 2021. Prior to that I taught Psychology in the Canadian higher education system for a decade, teaching quantitative and biological courses. While teaching, I initiated and collaborated with industry in mental health from the Silicon Valley to address questions in biomarker based detection and treatment of mental health conditions. I became interested in Psychology while studying at Kwantlen University College where I completed my undergraduate honours thesis with Farhad Dastur. He and the rest of the Psychology department inspired me to seek a career in Psychology academia. I continued my education at University of Ottawa where Catherine Plowright, and many other professors were as inspiring as those at Kwantlen.
