About Me

I am currently a postdoctoral research fellow at Simon Fraser University.  I received my PhD in geophysics at the University of British Columbia, and my BSc in Engineering Physics from the University of Alberta.  I am driven to do work for the public good, and have worked in a broad range of fields:

• Deep machine learning in hydrology: developing novel and accurate models for streamflow prediction, and interpreting model decision-making

• The unprecedented 2021 Western North America heat wave: understanding the regionally differentiated streamflow response during and after the 2021 heat wave

• The future of glacier-fed rivers: identifying glacier runoff signatures in regional streamflow datasets, and projecting future streamflow at communities

• Healthcare accessibility in a rapidly growing city: characterization of income, age, and their relationships with healthcare accessibility in Surrey, British Columbia 

• Nanoelectronic device physics: investigation of quantum scaling limits of transistors (which are the physical 1's and 0's in computer chips)

• Metal-oxide solar cells: investigation of all-oxide solar cells as a stable, non-toxic alternative to modern solar technologies
