about 

I am a PhD Candidate and Research Coordinator at Simon Fraser University, where I study health inequity and disparities in health and social care access and systems navigation experienced by older people who are isolated and lack informal or familial care support. My research interests include stakeholder engaged approaches to health research and knowledge translation and community-based interventions for late-life social isolation.  I have worked in a direct support capacity with older adults in challenging social circumstances since 2017.
