I am an Assistant Professor at the University of Toronto, with appointments in the Biostatistics Division and Institute of Health Policy, Management, and Evaluation (IHPME) at the Dalla Lana School of Public Health (DLSPH) and Faculty of Information (FoI). I am recently named the Canada Research Chair (Tier 2) for mobile health solutions. I geek out on designing alternative sensing approaches. One of my research tracks integrates mobile devices with interconnected systems to advance health monitoring and analysis. Overall, my work adopts a user-centred design approach, ensuring these systems generate meaningful interpretation of data to inform decisions for end users and ultimately support public health. Grounded in systems research, my work lies in 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 do pretend to be one with some passable shots. Check out my gallery!
