Chief of Staff, Werth Institute for Entrepreneurship & Innovation, University of Connecticut
With experience in both the private and public sectors, I currently work at The Werth Institute as the Chief of Staff, where a large portion of my role is centered around piloting experiential learning opportunities for unique student populations as well as supporting globally-based entrepreneurship activities.
Passionate about social and creative entrepreneurship as a catalyst for change, I am also a published journalist, covering topics related to climate change, public health, and social networks. I enjoy sharing my ideas with others, especially those outside of my circle through my blog "...And She Writes" as well am a TEDx speaker.
In my free time, I like to relax with my dog, who I am training to become therapy certified. I am also an award-winning cellist and nature photographer.
A proud Husky, I graduated from the University of Connecticut with an individualized B.A.
in Population Health, Disease, & Policy.

Master of Science Student, Health Sciences, Simon Fraser University
I am a second-year Master of Science candidate in the Health Sciences program at Simon Fraser University. My thesis focuses on proactively creating a consensus-driven normative governance framework for the ethical design and implementation of voice-based artificial intelligence (AI)-powered virtual conversational agents utilized for monitoring, diagnostic, and therapeutic purposes. My anticipated research outcome is to pave the way for VCAs that are both ethically sound and optimally beneficial for users in clinical and therapeutic contexts, setting the gold standard for voice-AI's ethical application. I have acquired over 8+ years of research experience in various multicultural healthcare contexts and have conducted both clinical and non-clinical research work. Alongside this, I have developed interpersonal skills through collaborations with interdisciplinary teams ranging from public policymakers to clinicians and patient research partners in Canada. I hope to further my knowledge in bioethics, voice AI, and AI healthcare technologies.

Senior Lecturer in Nutrition and Behaviour Change, University of Bristol
Zoi Toumpakari is a Senior Lecturer in Nutrition and Behaviour Change. Her research focuses on upstream determinants of eating behaviour, for example the physical environment, advertising and the role of policies. Specifically, she looks at how features of the eating environment, like where and with whom people eat, influence their food intake and how these could be altered to improve the population's diet. In addition, her research explores the role of dietary and physical activity patterns in the prevention of cardiometabolic health.

Ph.D. Candidate in Immunology, Tufts University
I graduated from Stonehill College in 2018 with a Bachelors in Biology. Currently, I am a 5th year PhD Candidate in immunology at Tufts University Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences. Under my advisor Dr. Alexander Poltorak, I study silent cell death, apoptosis, in immune cells (macrophages and neutrophils). My current work examines a novel role for a surface protein in preventing post-death inflammation and ensuring cell death remains silent. The elimination of these immune cells by apoptosis is crucial for the resolution of inflammation after infection. Interestingly, the apoptosis of these cells can be altered in aggressive cancers, particularly in the tumor environment. I hope that my work will have significant implications in these contexts.

I am a PhD student at Dalhousie University working with a team to unravel the global shark meat trade. My past work experiences include working in India as a marine education officer for a local NGO, studying the terrestrial behaviour of sea kraits, studying the resilience of coral reefs and associated taxa in the face of climate change, and characterising the shark and ray fisheries of India. I am interested in understanding the complex relationships between fish and humans and how these can inform resource governance and policy.
