Orvis is descended from Irish, English, Scottish and German people that settled around the Great Lakes and grew up in Tkaronto. Orvis joins the TMP to collaborate on data analytics.

Orvis’s passion is to make visible the world views imbedded within data structures and redress extractive data practices.
