I am a senior PhD student interested in using partial differential equations to model ecological phenomena. I enjoy playing guitar and have one cat. I also enjoy spending time outdoors hiking, camping, kayaking, swimming and so on. I have lived in many places throughout Canada, but my favorite place to be is Cape Breton, Nova Scotia.
