Nina Pulver

Nina is a PhD candidate in the School of Planning, researching how management of private green space can support or conflict with municipal climate adaptation goals. Having worked in “the real world” as a landscape architect for six years before returning to school for her PhD, Nina is keenly interested in linking academia with professional practice, and joined STEC in 2015 with a view to bridging this gap. She completed the Fundamentals in University Teaching certificate through the CTE in 2015, and currently sits on the Canadian Association of Landscape Architects’ Climate Adaptation Task Force as a representative Ontario practitioner and consulting academic. Nina uses her work with STEC as a platform for learning how to create a healthy balance between work, home, social life, volunteering, travel, Twitter, and Netflix.
