I graduated from the Electrical and Computer Engineering program in 2016 and joined the Computer Science department in 2020. As TEEL Lab's engineering lead, I build user-friendly solutions for research and curricula, advancing CS/IT teaching and learning methods through educational technology.

During my term, I would like to see Staff Council to advocate for the distinctive needs of technical staff supporting academic research, ensuring fair representation. I'll improve communication channels, champion resources, and launch targeted initiatives to address the specific challenges faced by this dedicated staff community.

My favorite quote is "Life's a journey, not a destination." Walking my dog is a silly little daily reminder, since she's all about sniffing along the way than going to any particular place.
