bio
- I’m a planner through and through. I plan my life a year in advance. It fits well that I ponder about the future for work.
- My perspective over-indexes on prioritizing joy, outdoor connection as a solution, and logistics.
- I spend my time thinking about how experiences on the internet and in real life mimic each other, learn from each other, and overall — bring joy and community. Most recently, I was at New_ Public as a Research Fellow.
- I started my career as a strategy consultant. As a Senior Strategist at Gemic, I extrapolated insights towards the future — based on qualitative and quantitative research — for innovation-minded recommendations in tech and food industries.
- I’m based in Toronto, Canada but Vancouver also feels like home.
- In 2024, I’m finishing up my PMP and my PPL. Also, prioritizing reading, writing, and establishing a home.
(read: certifying my project management skills, and obtaining my Private Pilot’s License).
- In 2023, I taught snowboarding in Niseko, Japan, hiked Alta Via 1 in the Italian Dolomites, and pursued my kayak guiding certification.
- In 2022, I upgraded my snowboard instructing certification (CASI Level 2 ✔️) and obtained my scrum master certification (CSM ✔️).
- Technically, I’m technical with an undergrad in electrical engineering from UBC.
- I’m curious about today’s communal physical and digital spaces, arts x STEM education, and ways to meld the two in a future endeavour.

project management
4+ years of experience from marketing to agile development to consulting. I write everything down and operate on organized chaos. I’m a certified scrum master and will be writing my PMP exam so soon.
