Bio

I am currently a Master of Teaching student with the University of Toronto. My current research considers the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as a way in which to address the lack of relevance of secondary school history teaching in Ontario. I excel in creative, project management type roles and have a passion for social justice and environmental sustainability.
