Hon BA (Western University), MLIS (Western University)
I am proud to work with a wonderful team as Project Manager for the Knowledge Hub project.
I have been working at CREVAWC for more than 15 years and during that time have managed projects such as the Canadian Domestic Homicide Prevention Initiative with Vulnerable Populations, Family Violence Family Law project, and the Knowledge Hub. I have also made significant contributions to the Learning Network. Prior to these projects I was the Centre Manager.
Previously I worked for Victim Service agencies in Southwestern Ontario where I developed education and training related to trauma.
I have interviewed hundreds of survivors of historical abuse which they experienced in institutions such as churches, schools, and other organizations.
