My graduate training was completed at the University of Western Ontario. I received an MSc in Kinesiology (Neurovascular physiology) 2007 and a PhD in Medical Biophysics (The Impact of the Sympathetic NPY System on the Progression of breast cancer) in 2013. Prior to joining Laurier, I was a postdoctoral fellow at the Princess Margaret Cancer Center (Molecular Imaging) from 2013 to 2016 and at the University of Guelph (Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology) from 2016 to 2019.
