I am a long-time public servant who has worn many hats during my time in both the provincial and federal public services in areas of business analysis, user experience (UX) research and design, digital content strategy and design, project management, digital accessibility, and product management to name a few. I have a strong interest in leveraging technology to improve health outcomes and personal health management, which stems from my contribution to the development, implementation, and operations of Alberta’s MyHealth Records service.
