Biography

My past research examined why regional nationalist parties have treated the issues of immigration and diversity in very different ways. As part of this research, I spent several months completing fieldwork in Spain and was a visiting scholar at the University of the Basque Country. I remain interested in how conceptions of the nation (i.e., 鈥淲ho are we?鈥�) influence the orientations of political parties and citizens in various policy domains. Using different methodologies, I have collaborated with colleagues to explore this matter in the Canadian context from different angles (i.e., healthcare, federalism, and the party system).

As teaching is my primary responsibility, I spend most of my time designing and delivering courses that inspire student interest in politics while developing their research and writing skills. I have earned grants for research on 鈥渁ctive learning鈥� in methods classes and the effectiveness of group-based learning in large lecture classes.

I enjoy teaching students at all levels, but my primary focus is on lower-division undergraduate courses. Introduction to Politics and Government (POL 100) and Investigating Politics (POL 200W) continue to be my primary courses, and I look forward to teaching courses on Canadian Government and Politics (POL 221/222) and Canadian Federalism (POL 321) in the future.

Please see my website to find my teaching evaluations, publications, and more information about my research. I provide frequent media commentary on Canadian political issues and elections, so do not hesitate to contact me.
