Tell us about yourself

I am not sure in which category I would like to register, and I am glad Franzgrote suggested I sign up. I am very passionate about making the world a better place, not depending on a status quo, re-evaluating our history in light of current knowledge, and getting the environment as a top priority for many. I am also very intersted in Indigenous knowledge, and am wanting to engage in reconciliation efforts. I am still developing and growing, but I hope to be with like minded people.

Work

I have a consultancy called Beyond Safety Compliance – helping organizations realize compliance is only the minimum

School

I am a lifelong learner, avid podcast listener, documentary watcher, very blessed that I can benefit from TVO.

I have a BSc in physics (Guelph), MSc in medical physics (Carleton), Graduate Certificate in Population Health Rish Assessment and Management (U of Ottawa) and a PhD in Population Health (U of Ottawa).

The PhD was very equity focussed – we were schooled in the Millenium (now Sustainable Development) goals.

Current city

The unceded territories of the Algonquin and Anishinaabe nations – most refer to as Ottawa Ontario.

Hometown

Brampton, Ontario
