I am an Associate Professor at the Lawrence S. Bloomberg Faculty of Nursing, University of Toronto and hold a Tier 2 Canada Research Chair in Pediatric Palliative Care. I am also a Nursing Research Associate with the Paediatric Advanced Care Team and Project Investigator in the Research Institute at the Hospital for Sick Children and an Adjunct Scientist in the Lifespan Program at ICES. The goal of my research is to identify, examine, and enhance the structures, processes, and outcomes of palliative care provided to children living with life-threatening illnesses and their families. Outside of work I enjoy curling – both playing and watching my daughter play – and spending time outdoors with my partner, two teenagers, and dog.
