I am interested in cultural knowledge and memory infrastructures during rapid socioecological changes, both global and local. I’ve been exploring the role of librarianship amid a changing climate since 2018, after a chance visit to the Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in Nation’s Dänojà Zho Cultural Centre.

Born and raised in the unceded, rightful, and ancestral homelands of the Nehiyaw Cree, the Niitsítapi Blackfoot Confederacy, the Dene, the Hohe Nakota Assiniboine, the Îyârhe Nakoda Sioux, the Nahkawininiwak Saulteaux, and the Otipemisiwak Métis.

Living and working on the stolen territories of the xwməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxw.7mesh (Squamish), and lwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh), about 100 km north of where my 公公’s father first stepped foot on Lək̓ʷəŋən land just under a century and a half ago.

Research interests:

• Rapid Environmental Change
• Epistemic Confluence of Ecology, Society, and Technology
• Cultural Continuity
• Knowledge Infrastructure
• Crisis and Collapse Informatics
