Research Training and Areas of Expertise<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I received my Ph.D. in Sociology in 2018 from Carleton University. My doctoral dissertation, Violence, Compensation, and Settler Colonialism<\/em>, focused on the construction of \u201cideal\u201d and \u201cnon-ideal\u201d victims in the Independent Assessment Process that adjudicated claims of physical and sexual abuse among Indian Residential School survivors. In the same year, I was awarded a Mitacs Canadian Science Policy Fellowship (2018-2020) that I carried out at Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada to study decolonization of Canadian agriculture, revitalization of Indigenous agricultural practices, and knowledge mobilization partnerships that blended Indigenous and Western knowledge systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am currently a Social Science and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) Postdoctoral Fellow (2021-2023) in the Department of Sociology, Social Policy and Criminology at the University of Liverpool. As part of my postdoctoral programme, I have established a research partnership with the Collaborative Justice Program to study the construction of \u201ccomplex offenders\u201d \u2013 individuals who have committed a crime against a victim, but who have also been marginalized through social injustice and structural violence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Research Interests<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

My research interests fall broadly within several categories. As a critical victimologist by training, I am interested in the social construction of victim status, victimization, and victimhood. In the area of transitional justice, my research program focuses on reparations with a specialization in financial compensation for human rights violations as well as reparations for settler colonial violence. My research in the area of restorative justice explores the construction of discourses of complexity of victim and offender experiences with particular attention on structural victimization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
