How to get deep into a topic: Step 1: debate it! I love to talk so the #MScIMS debate was right up my alley. Best thing is that I learned a lot from both sides. Keep an open mind and you can learn so much, even when you least expect it! #IMSgem #IMSadvantage

📖Storytime! In grade 9 I had to present in English class. I was reading off a script. Mr. N stopped me, told me to put my script on the floor, and present standing on a chair! My presentation was better without my script. Since then I'm team #DitchTheScript. #IMSadvantage

Want to learn more about someone? Get them to #teach you something they’re passionate about! My #MSc #IMS class had 5-min to do this & I learning things about my classmates that I never knew before. I definitely recommend this whether it be in a classroom or at a party!

First grad club Tuesday night trivia was a success! Turns out this #MScIMS cohort knows nothing about musicals. Hope this turns into a weekly tradition! 🙋🏻‍♀️🎤

Doug Ford was a mistake.

Important reminder.

Always a great time presenting at CERI. Glad to be back again at #CERI2024 with updates on my project incorporated patients into medical education. Excited about the ongoing analysis and how it can shape future oncology training at Western University! #PatientCentredCare

Honored to present at PiPER@UHN on engaging patients and integrating their perspectives into oncology education. It’s critical we bridge the gap between patient care experiences and medical training but engage our partners ethically. #PiPER2024 #CancerCare #PCC #MedEd #Research

Today I donated blood Canadian Blood Services —a simple act that can save lives, especially for those battling cancer. As a researcher tied to oncology care, I see the difference it makes. If you're eligible, consider donating; 15 minutes could be someone's tomorrow. #450Challenge
