Research & Scholarship
My research examines the historical and contemporary development of Canadian public institutions and the ways policy, media, archives, cultural institutions and administrative systems shape citizenship, public memory and democratic participation.
Trained in History, Political Science and Canadian Studies, I combine historical and archival research with institutional analysis, media analysis and research-creation.
