个人简介

The more you learn, the more you want to learn… My interests lie in understanding the basis of health, from the basic sciences of nutrition and biochemistry, to its application to overall health, metabolism and fitness. I play an active role in the education of undergraduates and first year medical students, collaborating with other instructors to facilitate student learning, and provide mentorship to further their growth and future careers. I am a strong believer in reflection, learning and building on your experiences to assist others and achieve success.

When I’m not delivering a lecture, seminar or lab, I’m thinking about teaching and how we can improve on our students’ experiences in each of these modalities. My research interests lie within the field of undergraduate education, both in the basic science field of biochemistry and in undergraduate medical education.

I have been involved with the coordination and evolution of the biochemistry undergraduate labs (BCH242Y, BCH370H, BCH371H and BCH471Y), as well as the lecture components of BCH210H and BCH242Y. As the biochemistry theme lead for the new Foundations curriculum in the University of Toronto MD program, I am involved with the Introduction to Medicine course as offered for first year medical students. I am actively involved in the design and facilitation of student learning in this new program, as well as faculty development. I am very much interested in active learning techniques as well as the move to online education. I was involved with the implementation of SCS2472: Biochemistry with a Medical Perspective, an online introductory biochemistry course that is now being offered by the Department of Biochemistry, and am currently the Course Coordinator for this course, actively working towards improving online student engagement and success.
