About

I am a Postdoctoral Fellow (starting June 1, 2025) in the Dept. of Chemical and Physical Sciences at the University of Toronto Mississauga. I received MASc from the University of Regina (2019) and completed my PhD in Chemical Engineering at the University of Calgary (2025). During my time at the University of Calgary (2019-2025) in Alberta, I was fascinated by the thermally non-equilibrium behaviour of colloidal particles at micro- and nanoscales and decided to dive into research topics where microfluidics for soft condensed matter research is active. My research interests lie at the intersections between fluid mechanics, surface thermodynamics and nonequilibrium statistical mechanics in microfluidic platforms, leading to developments in chemical and biological applications, such as disease screening, diagnostics and therapeutics.
