About Me

Education:
MLIS - Faculty of Information and Media Studies - Western University B.A. Spanish and Latin American Studies Simon Fraser University

Research Interests:
My research interests focus on access to government and advocacy information for citizens and civil society organizations in Canada and Tanzania. I am interested in applied research that can be adopted by the agri-food industry in Ontario. I also research how to improve information flows to villagers in Northern Tanzania from local government. I would like to pursue research to better understand the demands of users accessing information for decision-making in the civil society sector. How can we build and make accessible the information that is public for use and re-use?

Sharing Research Knowledge:
I share my research findings with colleagues, civil sector organizations and the agri-food community through scientific conferences, grower forums and the creation of user centred electronic repositories of research reports and data from Ontario agri-food research. I also look forward to presenting findings at conferences and workshops in the future.
