Steering the Alberta Centre for Advanced Diagnostics, my role is to enable the development of cutting-edge diagnostic technology and drive them towards global market competitiveness. We are helping Alberta based companies fast-tract their innovations towards market readiness. With a rich background in research operations, the team and I have made strides towards markedly reducing microbiology testing result times from days to mere hours. This work has culminated in Rapid Infection Diagnostics Inc., which is working to bring our technologies to healthcare providers and assist in combating infectious diseases and antimicrobial resistance.Beyond the laboratory, I'm passionate about traditional Karate, which enrich my professional ethos with perseverance and hard work and these principles are baked into my operational strategy. Working alongside an extremely talented team, I'm committed to developing innovation that saves lives and enhances healthcare standards worldwide.
