About
I am a PhD student in Political Science at McGill University and a member of the Centre for the Study of Democratic Citizenship, where I study Canadian politics, public policy, and multilevel governance, with a focus on urban and social policy. I am completing my doctorate under the supervision of Dr. Daniel Béland.
I hold a BA (Honours) in Political Science from the University of Alberta and an MA from the University of British Columbia. My doctoral studies are supported by a SSHRC Canada Graduate Scholarship (CGS-D), following earlier support through a SSHRC CGS-M and a Fulbright Killam Fellowship at the Center for the Study of Canada at the State University of New York.
I was also a Research-2-Impact Scholar in McGill's Department of Ethics, Equity, and Policy at the School of Population and Global Health. Across my work, I am interested in how institutions organize authority, resources, and public-service delivery across governments and communities.
