I have been teaching at the university level for over 20 years. I obtained my PhD in Sociology from Queen's University at Kingston where I concentrated in socio-legal studies and political sociology.. I hold an MA in Legal Studies from Carleton University, a Bachelor of Human Justice from the University of Regina's Faculty of Social Work, and a BA from Lakehead University (minoring in Law & Politics). I’ve published numerous peer-reviewed papers in academic journals and anthologies.
