Hello and welcome to my page! I am currently pursuing my Ph.D. in English Language and Literature at the University of Waterloo. My research interests include Black Canadian Literature, Black Canadian History, Critical Race Theory, Discourse Analysis, and Gender and Sexuality. My dissertation examines the discourse used in Canadian newspapers to frame instances of Black Canadian activism. I am a very passionate teacher and proponent of social justice, and I try strive to make my classrooms equitable spaces for all students. When I am not busy teaching or working on my dissertation, you can typically find me immersed in the wonderful world of music as a fan and performer!
