I am the Junior Community Environmental Researcher at Odonaterra. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Environment and Development from McGill University and a Master of Environmental Impact Assessment from Concordia University. My master's research explored opportunities to advance meaningful Indigenous consultation under the Species at Risk Act through an analysis of Indigenous-authored consultation guidance and best practices. 

I have experience working across the private, federal government, academic, and non-profit sectors, with a background in environmental assessment, policy and regulatory processes, community engagement, business development, data management, and interdisciplinary research. My work often involves synthesizing complex information into accessible findings and recommendations that support informed decision-making. Most recently, I supported the Species at Risk Permitting program at Environment and Climate Change Canada's Canadian Wildlife Service, contributing to expert consultation, regulatory compliance and efficiency, data analysis, and process improvement projects. 

Alongside my socio-environmental work, I am passionate about fostering opportunities for meaningful connections and bringing people together. Whether coordinating a graduate student and alumni networking event for Concordia University's Master of Environmental Impact Assessment program or organizing recreational soccer teams for friends and community members, I enjoy creating spaces where relationships, collaboration, and new ideas can flourish. 

I am bilingual in English and French and enjoy learning new languages, currently focusing on Portuguese. My language skills, combined with a curiosity about different cultures and perspectives, help me build relationships with people from diverse backgrounds. 

I am a third and fourth generation settler whose ancestors came from Ireland, England, France, and Hungary. From a family of bakers, grocers, engineers, and teachers, I was born, raised, and continue to live, learn, work, and play in Tiohtià:ke (Montréal), located on the traditional and unceded territory of the Kanien'kehá:ka Nation. I am grateful for the opportunity to learn about diverse Indigenous histories, perspectives, and ongoing stewardships, and am committed to supporting relationship-building and the ongoing journey toward Reconciliation.
