I joined CRaNHR in the fall of 2011.

I hold a Master's degree in Sociology from the University of Guelph, with concentrations in sociology of work, and mental health and well-being.

The major projects that I am presently assisting with are the Nurse Practitioner Tracking Study, the Social Inclusion of Informal Caregivers in Elliot Lake, and the Follow-up Study: Where are Monash Rural-Background Medical Graduates Practising?

Before joining CRaNHR, I worked as a Research Assistant conducting data entry, analysis, and report compiling for a municipal public health unit; telephone interviewing for Statistics Canada; and performing survey administration for an evaluation of a community program. Also, I have worked as a Sessional Lecturer in the Department of Sociology at my undergraduate alma mater, Nipissing University.
