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.
We did this activity both at Saturday Science and at Earth Hour at Westmount Community Centre. It's a simple way for children to make their own building blocks with stuff you already have on hand, so it's great for reducing waste and saving money. Building blocks a three year old can make and play with. Engineering projects for Saturday #science.
