Profile

About

I am from Toronto, Canada, and graduated from King’s College London (UK) with an MSci degree in Chemistry. In Dr. Rebecca Musgrave’s group, my MSci project focused on the inorganic synthesis of heterobimetallic mimics of acetyl-coenzyme A synthase.

Outside of Uni, I enjoy playing football, reading, gardening, iced coffee and cooking vegetarian recipes!
