I am a Bioethicist at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) and an Assistant Professor (Status-Only) at the Dalla Lana School of Public Health at the University of Toronto. My research and teaching focus on (1) public health ethics related to solidarity and pandemics, including COVID-19 and HIV/AIDS, (2) HIV/AIDS ethics more broadly, (3) various topics in 2SLGBTQ+ health, and (4) issues related to substance use and mental health ethics. I completed my PhD in Philosophy at York University and postdoctoral positions at the University of Victoria, Western University, and the University of Toronto.
