I am a clinical immunologist and allergist based in Montréal, Québec, Canada. Alongside my clinical practice, my outreach work focuses on improving access to specialist care in under-resourced communities. For me, allergy outreach also opens the door to broader questions about how we listen to communities, work across health systems, and develop approaches that can grow over time.

​

After completing a Bachelor of Arts and Science in Cognitive Science and Political Science, I undertook medical training and specialized in internal medicine and clinical immunology and allergy. Currently, I am pursuing the Oxford Global Healthcare Leadership Programme, supported by the Scholarship for Women.

​

As co-founder of Connexion Nordique, I travel to remote Indigenous regions of Northern Québec to provide allergy outreach services. Our work supports local healthcare teams through virtual clinics, culturally responsive care, allergy education, and efforts to strengthen local capacity. 

​​

Globally, I have contributed to medical education, including leading an allergy boot camp for residents at the University of Rwanda focused on strengthening clinical skills and supporting local teaching capacity. Earlier volunteer work in Mongolia, Angola, Ghana, and China helped shape my approach to cross-cultural collaboration and health equity.

​

I am also a classically trained singer and a songwriter. I am working on Seasons of Introspection, an original solo EP exploring identity through nature. I also co-create CommunauThé, a community music project with Danielle Klingelhofer and Chang Ayeyi, a gospel music project with Dr Christiana Asantewaa Okyere-Folson.
