Cohort 1 of Ideas Matter consists of 14 fellows, selected from more than 520 applicants. Fellows consist of researches with PhD degrees at Harvard, MIT, and John Hopkins; regular contributors to WIRED magazine; investors at top venture capital firms; and lead scientists at biotechnology companies.

Fellows receive access to professional editors, discretionary funds for reportage or travel, and complete two edited pieces for inclusion in a published anthology.

I've had the honour to serve as the first female two-term president in the largest high school in Ontario. During my term, I have served as the student representative on the School Council &  Safe & Accepting Schools Committee.

I have worked on bringing back several events after the pandemic (student-run assemblies, fundraising initiatives, student-teacher buyouts, etc.) and reforming the club system at our school. I have also created a website for our school's clubs & councils: earlhaigclubs.ca.

I was the recipient of the Club of the Year Award (2022) and Principal's Award (2023).

Gravvity is a $16M-valued startup building AI-powered immersive commerce and was part of the NEXT AI Canada Cohort 2023.
‍
I had the privilege to be the first female employee and team member under 25, work on reforming the communication system with 200+ investors, develop updates for partners, and represent Gravvity in the IBM x EVOKE pitch.

It was an honour to receive the mentorship and support in an ambitious and creative environment!
