Hi! 

I'm a Ph.D. Candidate in Public (Science) Policy at Johnson Shoyama Graduate School of Public Policy, University of Saskatchewan, Canada. My research aims to better understand the processes and institutions that drive scientific production and prosperity and, how groups and individuals respond to that scientific production. 

When my scholarly journal began, I was most interested in questions that could broadly be categorized into three, inextricably linked categories:

1. Who makes science/knowledge?

2. What science/knowledge do they make?

3. For whom?

More recently I have been interested in several other questions that are closely related to the above, and also all inextricably linked, mainly:

1. 'Who' uses 'what' science/knowledge?

2. What do they use it for?

3. 'Who' made it?

While all of my work, thus far, has relied on quantitative methods, I'm always open to learning and using different tools to better understand how people drive science and science drives people. From these understandings I hope to develop applied, policy-relevant insights that can benefit everyone.

When I'm not working, I'm probably playing chess (3+1), Dungeons & Dragons (3E) or, listening to the soundtrack from Sid Meier's Civilization VI.
