{who}

As you’ve probably already noticed, my name is Catherine

{what}

During the day, I work as a bioinformatics analyst (i.e, a person that transforms various sets of numbers into pretty pictures). At night, you can find me kicking around a soccer ball, attempting to cook a dish I found online, and/or hanging out with my dog (click on the Instagram link if you want a little surprise…).

{where}

In 2015, I graduated from McMaster University with an honours bachelor’s degree in Health Sciences with a specialization in Global Health. Then, in 2018, I completed my Master’s degree in Molecular Genetics from the University of Toronto. Currently, I (virtually) work at the Donnelly Centre for Biomolecular Research for the labs of Charlie Boone and Jason Moffat.

{when}

I officially started working in bioinformatics a short while after I graduated in 2018.

{why}

Playing around with data is fun!
