Historical geographer at Nipissing University, North Bay, ON. My research involves reparative work and interdisciplinary collaborations that bring together critical approaches in the humanities and geophysical sciences to understand environmental issues.
I will be presenting on “Why Geography Matters: Reflections of Place-Based Reparative Research as a Canada Research Chair at Nipissing University (2015-2025),” as part of Nipissing University’s Undergraduate Annual Research Conference. Everyone is welcome.

Every year, the faculty in Geography at Nipissing University play against our undergrads in the annual Pangea Cup. After a decade of winning, the students finally won. What a great event to bring students and faculty together.

The best part of teaching grad courses is class discussion. We read Matthew Evenden’s “Aluminum, Commodity Chains, and the Environmental History of the Second World War” with works by Mimi Sheller and Brad Cross. MA in History students recreated Evenden’s commodity chain map.

Spent the week on the Atlantic side of Costa Rica for Nipissing University’s GEOG4976 Field Camp. We stayed with Indigenous communities to learn about their traditions, cosmologies, and practices. The course was made possible by the Global Skills Opportunities funding program.
