- Research associate, Western University
- Postdoctoral research fellow, Toronto Metropolitan University
I research strategies for reducing conflicts with wildlife in the built environment, specializing in bird collisions with glass on buildings. I work in the nonprofit sector and specialize in community partnerships, civic engagement and advocating for climate resiliency, biodiversity conservation and environmental justice. My interests include species at risk protection, sensory ecology, urban planning and design, gardening with native species and litter prevention. I combine community science, creative arts and storytelling to educate the public about actions to support coexistence in balance with nature.
