Research and Professional Interests

My research interests are in analyzing the local, regional, and transnational forces and processes driving socio-spatial inequalities across neighbourhoods in Canada and the US, particularly as it relates to neighbourhood change, suburban poverty, and gentrification. I am particularly drawn to analyses of housing markets, household indebtedness, and the role of planning in producing and reproducing socio-spatial inequalities across metropolitan regions.

Why Geography, Geomatics and Environment at UTM?

For the opportunity to work with Professor Alan Walks, who has been a great mentor and research supervisor throughout my academic career.
