• Environmental Scientist, PhD Candidate, Toronto Metropolitan University

As a passionate environmental scientist, I come from a multi-disciplinary background with interests in environmental policy and planning, sustainability, e-waste management, and the circular economy. I strongly believe that sustainability is an important function of our lives and so it is our responsibility as researchers to lead and translate the sustainability jargon into a simple language that everyone can understand and replicate in order to maximize its benefits.

As a PhD candidate at TMU, my research involves using different machine learning tools for investigating the most effective policies related to the circular economy, with an emphasis on e-waste management. The aim of my research is to fill in the knowledge gap in understanding the state of existing policies through comparative case studies as well as being able to develop resources to support more proactive and thoughtful policymaking that will help propel adoption of the circular economy directed towards the Canadian e-waste sector. It is our moral responsibility to rethink our relationship with digital technologies. My objective is to drive meaningful conversations about circular and sustainable e-waste management methods that will lean towards a centralized focus on how we as stakeholders envision and perceive the risks of buying new electronic and electrical equipment.

My areas of expertise are:
- ICT and sustainability
- Circular economy / Urban mining
- Public policy and planning
- Waste management
- Internet of things

My message is to convey that genuine sustainability necessitates a comprehensive consideration of social, economic, and environmental factors. The circular economy should not be pursued in isolation but as part of an integrated strategy for sustainable development that places justice and equity on equal footing with our environmental goals. I hope that communication with respect to how to correctly dispose of e-waste becomes more convenient and accessible for individuals so that the choices and procedures for e-waste management become less complicated in Canada.
