Continuing Lecturer
Anthropology and Heritage Studies
My research interests include language learning within the school context, enhancing and developing academic supports and resources for under-represented students, both in and out of school, and expanding ways in which partnerships are developed between communities, families, and schools. I am interested in how we bridge the ‘gap’ between school, home, and community, and how we expand opportunities for under-represented students in the pursuit of higher education. I am also interested in how students create a ‘sense of belonging’ when transitioning from home and community to college/university settings.
