I’m an inter­ac­tion designer, web devel­oper, illus­tra­tor and scholar liv­ing in Toronto.

I’m cur­rently work­ing towards a Ph.D. degree at York Uni­ver­sity in the Com­mu­ni­ca­tion and Cul­ture grad­u­ate pro­gram (and plan­ning on minor­ing in Human-Computer Inter­ac­tion on the side). My research inter­ests include Asperger’s syn­drome, dig­i­tal com­mu­ni­ties, human-computer inter­ac­tion, and game-based assis­tive technologies.

I grad­u­ated from Simon Fraser Uni­ver­sity with Mas­ter of Sci­ence (2011) and Bach­e­lor of Arts (2009) degrees in Inter­ac­tive Arts and Tech­nol­ogy, spe­cial­iz­ing in Media Arts, Hap­tics and Human-Computer Interaction.

I’m a web enthu­si­ast who loves cre­at­ing cut­ting edge web­sites. I’ve worked in pub­lic and pri­vate sec­tor as a web designer and devel­oper. My free­lance busi­ness has been serv­ing per­sonal, non-profit and busi­ness clien­tele for over a decade.

In my spare time, I mas­quer­ade as a retro gamer, avid book­worm, and clan­des­tine songstress. I have a pen­chant for exotic choco­late and fine teas. I’m geekier than most peo­ple expect, which always amuses me.
