I am an Assistant Professor in the Biostatistics Division and Institute of Health Policy, Management, and Evaluation (IHPME) at the Dalla Lana School of Public Health (DLSPH), University of Toronto. I am cross-appointed to the Faculty of Information (FoI). My research integrates mobile devices and interconnected systems to develop innovative methods for health monitoring and analysis. I am particularly passionate about fostering a healthy society by creating equitable applications that empower individuals to take charge of their health and well-being. Grounded in systems research, my work explores the intersection of Mobile and Ubiquitous Computing, Applied Machine Learning, and Human-Computer Interaction.

Beyond my academic pursuits, I relish the simple yet exquisite things in life. Connecting with nature via birdwatching is my portal to wellness. Not a photographer, but I try to be good at it. Check out my gallery.
