I am a PhD Candidate in Political Science at Carleton University. With LERRN, I have been involved in researching the impact of resettlement on refugees living in Kenyan camps, analyzing archival documents on the history of solutions for refugees, facilitating LERRN’s research methods and ethics course, editing LERRN’s working papers series, and analyzing prominent journals in forced migration studies looking at geographic representation among authors. My PhD thesis research is about the history of UNHCR’s role in the resettlement of refugees with disabilities. My past research projects have looked at Canada’s refugee sponsorship programs and sponsorship in rural communities across Canada.
