My teaching philosophy is influenced by bell hooks’ conceptualization of an engaged pedagogy. I believe that there should be pleasure in the classroom, and that higher learning is fundamentally a subversive and liberatory endeavour. I am committed to radical social justice, and approach the classroom as an intellectual community where collaborative learning about the intersectional functioning of misogyny, white supremacy, cissexism, ableism, classism, colonization, and imperialism.

I aim to expose students to social movements working to dismantle these oppressive systems as not only activist spaces, but places where knowledge is created and exchanged. My courses engage with theory produced within academia, but also that which is produced outside its walls.

In 2020, I was awarded the Senate Award for Excellence in Teaching.
