Summary
I am a trilingual policy and research professional trained in medicine and digital rights. I have over 22 years of experience of community building, training, and supporting organizations to leverage technology to enhance advocacy and improve collaboration while protecting privacy. I am currently the Chief Technology Officer and Research Lead at the Collier Collective, where I support the team on issues related to harm reduction, health care policy, privacy, data analysis, and social media. I am also the founder of Privaterra, a Canadian based company that works with private industry and nongovernmental organizations such as as The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), Counterpart International, American University's Institute on Disability and Public Policy (IDPP), Citizen Lab, and Freedom House, on issues related to accessibility, data privacy, digital security, and Internet governance. I earned my B.Sc. (Hons) in Physiology and Pharmacology from Western University and am an alumni of the Universidad of Navarra’s Faculty of Medicine.
