I’m a prairie kid who loves research. I have a Master’s in economics with a focus on public programs, labour and education. Long before that, I did my undergrad in physics & English with a math minor.

Besides my resume, you’ll find this page full of sewing projects, the odd published poem, and stories about Canadian science.

A note about the blog title: in math and physics, the prefix eigen means one's own. It comes from the german, but mostly I always liked thinking about a particle's eigenvalues, and thought I might apply the same thought to my excursions.

Dataset video: Mental Health and Addictions Information System

A new video I did for work, profiling the new Health Research Data Platform-Saskatchewan clinical dataset: Mental Health and Addictions Information System (MHAIS).

The SCPOR comms team also put together a nice little story about how this data came to be: read here.

I interviewed Dr. Marilyn Baetz about HRDP-SK and her excitement about MHAIS being available for research. She was lovely and we put together this little video (which turned out OK despite me shooting in HDR on my iPhone and having endless colour mapping issues in Premiere!!)
