Teaching the ST362/562 Regression Analysis course for the Spring 2021 semester; creating weekly lectures asynchronously recorded, writing assignments, midterms, and exam questions, managing a teaching assistant and partnering with a lab coordinator, and supervising statistical and data science group projects for a class of thirty students.

Developed statistical models to provide online financial digital advice for investors using behavioural and household finance.

Conducted statistical analyses on a variety of contracts across the university and Ontario. Wrote detailed technical reports that summarized findings and communicated results directly with clients. Taught workshops on using R for statistical analysis.

Taught the SS1024A Introduction to Statistics course; created weekly lectures, wrote quiz and exam questions, managed four teaching assistants, and collaborated with three instructors in separate sections.

Wildland fires are natural disturbances that enable the renewal of forests. However, these fires also place public safety and property at risk. Understanding forest fire spread in any region of Canada is critical to promoting forest health, and protecting human life and infrastructure. In 2014, Ontario updated its Wildland Fire Management Strategy, moving away from "zone-based" decision making to "appropriate response" decision making. This new strategy calls for an assessment of the risks and… Show more Wildland fires are natural disturbances that enable the renewal of forests. However, these fires also place public safety and property at risk. Understanding forest fire spread in any region of Canada is critical to promoting forest health, and protecting human life and infrastructure. In 2014, Ontario updated its Wildland Fire Management Strategy, moving away from "zone-based" decision making to "appropriate response" decision making. This new strategy calls for an assessment of the risks and benefits of every wildland fire reported in the province. My research places the emphasis on the knowledge and understanding of fire spread rates and their variabilities. To satisfy these needs for a forest fire risk-benefit assessment tool that incorporates the effects of ignition, extinction, and spreading rate, my research explores new methods for spread rate estimation with an emphasis on understanding spread rate variability, for use in stochastic forest fire models.
