Geniece Hallett-Tapley was graduated from Shelburne Regional High School in 1998 and then proceeded to Acadia University, where she graduated with a BSc in Chemistry in May of 2002. While at Acadia Geniece met her husband, David. Immediately following graduation, Geniece started working under the supervision of Dr. Frances Cozens at Dalhousie University, with whom she completed both an MSc (2004) and PhD (2009) in Physical Organic/Photochemistry investigating the excited state dynamics of carbocation intermediates within the confines of alkali-metal cation exchanged zeolites. In September 2009, Geniece and her husband packed up and moved to Ottawa where she began a Postdoctoral Fellowship under the supervision of Dr. Tito Scaiano at the University of Ottawa.
