I have a PhD in Gender, Sexuality & Women’s Studies from the University of Western Ontario.  Western University is situated on the traditional territories of the Anishinaabeg, Haudenosaunee, Lunaapeewak and Attawandaron peoples, who have longstanding relationships to the land and region of southwestern Ontario and the City of London. The local First Nation communities of this area include Chippewas of the Thames First Nation, Oneida Nation of the Thames, and Munsee Delaware Nation. In the region, there are eleven First Nation communities and a growing Indigenous urban population.

I graduated from the Interdisciplinary Graduate Studies Program, working within the Department of Community, Culture & Global Studies in the Irving K. Barber School of Arts & Social Sciences.  My undergraduate degree was in Gender & Women’s Studies.
