Profile Summary

I am a research scientist with a PhD in Cell and Molecular biology from the University of Edinburgh in Scotland. Following my PhD, I received postdoctoral training from institutions in Sweden, Denmark and Canada. With over 8 years of research experience, I have built an expertise in developing better yeasts and bacteria for a wide range of applications using synthetic biology tools. Previously, I developed yeasts strains to produce bioethanol from wood and agricultural waste. Currently, I am applying my yeast genetics knowledge to the brewing and baking industry. In my role as the research and development lead at a Canadian yeast company, I drive several projects aimed at developing new yeasts strains that make better beer, bread and pastries. I do a lot of scientific writing that has resulted in science blog posts and >12 peer reviewed research articles. I enjoy data analysis and making images to visualize the analysed data.
