From 2008 to 2015, I worked for
Bombardier Aerospace in the Advanced Aerodynamics Department in Montreal.
I did software development and aerodynamic analysis aided by computational fluid dynamics.
|
In January of 2008, I completed my MASc degree at the
University
of Toronto Institute for Aerospace Studies in the CFD and Propulsion
Group. The title of my thesis was
"Parallel Implicit Adaptive-Mesh-Refinement Scheme for Hypersonic Flows."
My research mostly dealt with effective preconditioning of the linear update step of
Newton's method but also made the entire flow solver more robust.
|
In 2005, I completed my BASc degree with the
Division of Engineering Science
at the University of Toronto, in the
Aerospace Option. As part of the degree, I did a 15‑month internship at
Consensys Computers through the
PEY program
at the University of Toronto.
At Consensys Computers, I programmed Linux hardware drivers written in C
for our custom-built network-attached storage devices.

I currently dance with the
Montreal Branch of The Royal Scottish Country Dance Society.
I previously took pipe organ lessons from
William Maddox of Yorkminster Park Baptist Church in Toronto.
I passed the Licentiate Recital Exam of
Trinity College London
in organ in 2007. I completed with honours the grade 9 exam in piano of
The Royal Conservatory in 1998.
