Committee Chair & Treasurer
I’m currently a Master’s student working with Dr. Eric Price on pro-drugs for the treatment of pancreatic cancer. I’m from Brazil and some of my favorite things in the world are camping and spending time in nature. I’ve been involved in women’s rights activism for a few years now, so I’m ecstatic to be able to work closely with other women in the sciences to bring awareness to the difficulties minorities face in academia. The future is inclusive!
Outreach co-ordinator
I’m a PhD student working with Dr. Chris Phenix at the Department of Chemistry, USASK. My research is focused on developing PET radiotracers that could act as a diagnostic tool for Parkinson’s disease. Before becoming a student, I was teaching high school Chemistry in Pakistan. I have always encouraged my students, especially women to pursue higher education and join the professional workforce. I enjoy hiking, reading, and cooking. I am excited to be a part of Women in Chemistry creating awareness for a diverse environment here at the department.
Communications Coordinator
Currently, I am a Ph.D. student in Chemistry under the supervision and guidance of Dr. Tim Kelly. My research focuses on Studying the stability of perovskite materials in solar cells and photodetectors, using mainly synchrotron techniques. I am very passionate about interacting with the community and promoting STEM fields that empower people to explore their potential for innovation and science. I hope to continue working together with the WiC team towards a shared goal!

I joined the University of Saskatchewan in September 2019 as a PhD student. I am working in the solid-state chemistry group under the supervision of Dr. Andrew Grosvenor. The focus of my research is to study the corrosion resistance of proposed nuclear waste form materials for nuclear waste sequestration. I love teaching and interacting with my students in my TAing classes. One of my biggest interests is spending time in nature. I usually go camping and hiking during my time off because it keeps me relaxed and energized.
