My research will contribute to our fundamental understanding of the role of nutrition in disease prevention and strategies to implement change working through families.
I examine marine conservation policy and governance, from local to global scales. I explore how decisions are made, how science and other kinds of knowledge inform these decisions, how various actors influence decision-making processes, and who benefits (or loses) as a result.

Landscape architecture has a long history at the University of Guelph, and we are able to tap into the diversity of disciplines here in order to make a broad contribution to our students' education and experience.
My research improves life by assessing workplace tasks and devices for end user injury potential. Once the risk is understood, new methods and devices are designed to minimize the potential of developing injuries such as carpal tunnel syndrome.
