My background in Economics, International Relations, and Statistics shapes how I evaluate financial systems. I’m interested in how markets connect to policy, sustainability, and long-term institutional decisions.
At University Health Network, I managed multi-million-dollar research grants and clinical-trial budgets. I have also worked on ESG and impact-investing cases, consulted for sustainability-focused organizations, and co-founded a mental-health nonprofit during the pandemic.
