Catherine (she/they) is a PhD candidate in the Department of History at the University of Waterloo. She received her BA in History from York University and her MA in History from the University of Toronto. Her current research concentrates on the gendering of the Canadian missionary education in central Angola between 1880 and 1920 with a focus on schools run by the Canadian Congregational Foreign Missionary Society (CCFMS). She examines the gendering of the curriculum and the lived/living impacts of gendered education for Angolans. In addition to research, she volunteers as a tree planter and works as an English-as-a-foreign-language teacher in Huambo, Angola, at the Language Institute of IECA (the Evangelical Congregational Church of Angola).
