AARON R.

Aaron grew up in Toronto, going on to complete an Undergraduate Degree majoring in Life Science with a minor in Mathematics at Queen’s University. He is currently finalizing his MSc at Queen’s University as well, where he was afforded the stellar opportunity to conduct his research floating in zero-gravity in collaboration with the Canadian Space Agency. Having recently completed a graduate research fellowship at Harvard Medical School, Aaron is currently a PhD student in bioengineering at the University of Toronto, trying to program human cells to act like microscopic computers.
Aaron has a wealth of experience in teaching science at the undergraduate level, and looks forward to engaging his high-school students, getting them excited about all of his favourite subjects! Having taken all science and math courses in high school in addition to leading a successful undergraduate career, Aaron knows how challenging it can be for students to juggle many subjects. As such, he looks forward to not only teaching, but to sharing his strategies for staying organized, working independently and thinking critically.

In his spare time, Aaron loves downhill skiing, making fresh sourdough, and cooking spicy food. If it’s summertime, you can also find him in the garden tending to his peppers which he uses to make his world-famous hot sauce! Although the Ontario curriculum unfortunately doesn’t cover that, he is glad to give some advice! Altogether, Aaron is looking forward to building a rapport with his students and mentoring them in a positive learning environment, helping them to achieve their academic goals.
