Late modern sport is simultaneously an eternal enactment of nostalgia and a continual preparation for contagion, processing, incarceration and trauma.

About

I earned an MBA from the University of Alberta’s International Institute for the Study of Sport Management and am currently a doctoral candidate in the PhD program in Media and Communications at the European Graduate School in Switzerland. Prior to that, I served on faculty for two years in the Sport Management program at Acadia University, after earning a BKin (Sport Management) only three months earlier. My colleagues would describe me as an innovative team leader who diplomatically handles diverse individuals and situations, and who uses technology effectively for research and communications.

Research focus: Critical inquiry at the nexus of international sport, technology, politics and the body.
