About Me

I am a teacher, education leader, and researcher committed to strengthening teaching and learning systems and supporting faculty, staff, and learners across postsecondary and healthcare environments. I focus on designing, facilitating, and evaluating evidence-informed programs that elevate teaching excellence, build educator capacity, and foster inclusive, sustainable learning environments where people can thrive.

Most recently, I served as Director, Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) at George Brown Polytechnic, leading the institution’s SoTL strategy, faculty development initiatives, and funding and dissemination efforts. Before that, I was a full-time Assistant Professor in the Departments of Psychiatry and Behavioural Neurosciences and Surgery at McMaster University, and an Education Scientist with St. Joseph’s Education & Research Centre. I continue to hold a part-time faculty appointment in Psychiatry and Behavioural Neurosciences at McMaster and serve as an Adjunct Scientist with the MERIT Centre.

Across all my roles, I strive to model relationship-centred, equity-informed leadership—listening deeply, building trust, and co-creating learning experiences that honour diverse perspectives. I believe learning environments flourish when people feel respected, supported, and empowered to reach their full potential.
