Currently pursuing a masters focusing on climate justice education, I’m passionate about how we can learn from, through, and alongside immense change. I believe bringing together different community members, perspectives, experiences is an important part of building resilience and capacity for co-creating just-futures. The last year I worked with my community, and with support from OceanWise to create conversation cards that can open the door for climate action by acknowledging emotional reactions and well-being, our lived experiences, and promoting togetherness. Climafide, the resulting organization, aims to create accessible facilitation for schools, businesses, community centres, and friends and family to forward the sustainability/justice movement.

After graduating from Dalhousie University with a degree in Environmental and Social sustainability I set out to use creativity to empower sustainable activism. Not just environmentally sustainable, also sustainable in the sense of avoiding burnout. From this, Solacene was born, a project to imagine a future that is beautiful, sustainable, and tactile. Through podcasting, video, and art Solacene is place for solutions thinking. As a part of my work, I have began a slow-fashion line that puts into practice all the principals of degrowth, circularity, and sustainability that we talk about on the podcast and through our writing.
