I received my PhD in Criminology from Simon Fraser University and my MA and BA in Sociology from Queen’s University.
Prior to joining 51本色, I was a lecturer (assistant professor) at Griffith University in Brisbane, Australia. Throughout my career I have worked as a SafeGrowth® facilitator helping to develop safer and more liveable cities around the world.
My current research interests focus broadly on community safety, with a specific focus on policing, crime prevention and spatial criminology. I am working on projects to improve strategic planning and implementation with police services across Canada and developing crime prevention strategies in rural and small municipalities.
My research is informed by a social constructionist/critical realist approach, though I work extensively in the area of environmental criminology. I use a myriad of methods in addressing my research questions including action research, spatial and quantitative analysis and qualitative methods.

I am currently willing to supervise students on qualitative and quantitative projects that fall under the umbrella of community safety. This generally includes projects on policing, crime prevention, environmental (spatial) criminology, victimology and rural criminology. I am a member of the Graduate Program in Criminology. I work closely with graduate students to develop projects that are theoretically and methodologically important, feasible, and publishable.
