My name is Jordan, originally from Vancouver, British Columbia, I am a graduate student at the University of British Columbia, working towards a Master of Science degree in Kinesiology. Prior to graduate school I completed my Bachelor of Kinesiology degree at UBC. It was during this degree I found my passion for neuroscience and working towards novel techniques to improve our understanding and our rehabilitation techniques for various neurological and orthopaedic disorders.
