Engineer | Investor | Builder | Creative

I believe the hardest problems impacting technology adoption and deployment in society are fundamentally human ones.

I trained as a mechanical and biomedical engineer — contributing to five assistive technologies along the way — before going to Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar, where I completed an MSc at the Oxford Internet Institute and an MBA. My research explored participatory design with people with disabilities, focusing on what it truly takes to build inclusive digital infrastructure. Before Oxford, I was on the innovation team at Garmin Canada, advancing next-generation biosensor and wearable systems.

In my latest chapter, I invested in and supported early-stage AI founders at Inovia, a leading full-stack venture capital firm anchored in Canada with a global presence. I also advised on digitalization and the future of work through the OECD's Youthwise board, and spent years thinking about what it means to build technology that is both rigorous and humane. I'm now building something new — at the intersection of the things I keep coming back to: inclusive design, AI, and the systems that determine who gets to participate in the world.
