About Me
Hi! I’m a 16-year-old innovator passionate about leveraging technology to address our global consumption of fossil fuels. When I’m not learning, I’m probably reading, playing sports, or writing. My debut novel was published when I was 14 and was a #1 bestseller in magical realism. The sequel, "Chronicles of Illusions: Bound by Dreams" was recently released in May 2022 and is available on all platforms. You can find both books on Amazon here.

Solar Energy
I'm passionate about solar energy, where I've designed a transparent and flexible Perovskite cell utilizing silver nanowires, and am now trying to get materials to build this out in a lab.

I am currently developing a bioplastic from duckweed through an internship at Pond Biomaterials, and have been working in the Chemistry Department at Carleton University.

I am the co-host of The Curiosity Podcast which is all about equipping young people with the skills they need to thrive in the future. We are bringing on inventors from companies like SpaceX, Microsoft, Google, Neuralink, and Apple.
