As I've build on my life-long practical knowledge with an MA in Gender, Sexuality and Women's Studies from Simon Fraser University, I have developed an expertise of certain areas within feminist education, specifically around Gender Based Violence, Intimate Partner Violence and Sexual Assault Prevention

I recognize that I live and work on the stolen lands of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish) and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. Working from a world-wide anti-colonial standpoint is essential to my work in order to build bridges and attempt to heal some of the wounds that have been caused by colonizing settlers,. Furthermore, I strive to highlight Indigenous voices in all the work I do, as well as honour the land that they have kept safe since time immemorial.
