Welcome to my digital field notes - part experiment, part archive. This is a live site: my ideas, projects, and curiosities evolve in real-time.


I’m:


  • sharing science stories with a variety of creative mediums (see: Science as a Story)

  • researching the attention economy and attention as social capital

  • studying computational neuroscience at MIT and bioinformatics/epidemiology at U of T

  • about to visit my 54th country.


Previously, I:

  • built a synthetic data platform for patient and consumer simulation, used by 30+ teams in 3 continents

  • filmed a documentary about the social burden of COVID-19 on medical institutions in Southeast Asia, circulated by the Malaysian NIH, reaching 50k+ views on all platforms

  • scaled a short-form content platform to 60k+ followers in ~6 months

  • developed flavour matrixes for ~25 dining establishments.


Don't know where to start? I'd recommend my reading list or photo album. If something sparks a thought, you can find me on Twitter, email, and LinkedIn.


Have a pleasant journey.




Hi. I’m Jolie...
