Speaking Engagements (Coming Soon)


My experiences working on the ground in refugee resettlement, research experience in forced migration, and training as an occupational therapist have given me plenty of insight into systems navigation, working across cultures, and in multi-lingual settings.

Coming soon, I am hoping to offer knowledge exchanges focused on, but not limited to the following:
  • Working with Interpreters 101
  • Forced migration: Understanding experiences pre-flight, during flight, and resettlement
  • Between a rock and a hard place: The journey of youth with forced migration experiences and multi-systems involvement
  • Understanding the triple trauma paradigm: Tending to trauma responses  during resettlement
  • Unpacking Western ways of understanding Trauma 
  • Resettlement and Integration in Canada: Whose definition is our guide?
