About Me

As a scholar and activist focusing on socio-environmental citizenship and Green political theories, I am in a unique position both academically and professionally to conduct my research. Now in the second year of my doctoral studies at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, I focus on the intersections of environmental sustainability, participatory democracy, and social justice.

​

Within the Green Party of Canada, I serve as the Critic for Intergovernmental Affairs, Women and Gender on the Shadow Cabinet as well as Co-Chair of the International Secretariat. initiatives include policy proposals to rescind the Natural Resources Transfer Acts, creation of the party platform supporting the decriminalization of sex work, and the relaunch of the Women’s Caucus with mentorship and peer support programs. Internationally, I am the Co-Coordinator of the Global Greens Climate Working Group, organizing annual delegations to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) Conference of the Parties (COP), including the upcoming COP30 in Belém, Brazil.

​

I have presented my work globally, including in a plenary on the Kunming-Montréal Global Biodiversity Framework in Korea, research on political cleavages and organizational change in Sweden, critical ethnography on Green politics in Hawaii, and symbolic interactions at COP in Montréal.

​

In my role as the Ontario Chair of the Security and Defence wing of G100, I created a podcast called 100 Sisters on Security, covering such important gender justice issues as Indigenous rights and forest defence, peace and the Canadian Armed Forces, marginalization of Muslim im/migrants, and climate and gender-responsive financing. Guests have included the only Canadian woman military observer to actively verify the ceasefire in Guatemala in 1997, as well as a Ha-ma-yas Stewardship Network Guardian for the Da’naxda’xw/Awaetlala First Nation.

​

My work bridges academic inquiry and global activism, grounded in feminist leadership, ecological justice, and strategic collaboration.
