Education and background

Currently, I am a PhD Candidate in Education at McGill University. My research focuses on exploring academic barriers that college (CEGEP) students with learning disabilities (LD) encounter in science education. As well, I am examining barriers that college science teachers experience in teaching their students with LD, and strategies that they employ to overcome their challenges. In collaboration with professionals and teachers at John Abbott CEGEP, I am investigating the impact of an intervention-based strategy on academic outcomes and motivation levels of student athletes.
I am also a part-time course lecturer in the Department of Animal Science, McGill University.
