I am the point person for our Lab community – you can ask me anything about upcoming sessions, research opportunities and even the less glamorous (but equally as important) stuff like contracts, ethics, and finances. I also manage the co-creation process on research projects with Lab participants from start to finish.

I was first introduced to systems thinking through a course during my undergrad where I mapped the waste management ecosystem in Waterloo Region. Now, when I think about solving massive and complex problems, words like network, impact, community, come to mind. That’s why I think systems innovation is important – the world’s most pressing issues will only be solved if innovators come together to understand and dance with systems.
