Biography
I completed a B.A. (Honors) in Economics and Geography at Queen’s University (1992), a Master’s in Environmental Studies at York University (1995), and a Ph.D. in Geography at Carleton University (2006). A broad range of experiences in the public, private, and non-profit sectors inform both my teaching and research. I am most interested in praxis – the application of theory, and I seek to make my teaching transformative, and my research critical yet constructive and action-oriented.
Research Interest
Localizing food systems and sustainable community, community-university partnerships, environmental conflict and deliberative democracy
