Faculty bio

I am a settler-Canadian born and raised on the traditional lands of the Anishinahbai, Haudenosaunee, Attawandaraon. As a first-generation university graduate, my passion for supporting student success fuels all that I do in terms of teaching, research and service.

My research centers on understanding and enhancing learning processes through the lens of self-regulated learning (SRL). My research aims to uncover the complex interplay between cognitive, motivational, and socio-emotional factors that influence how learners engage with academic tasks, in formal and informal learning contexts, as well as traditional and digital learning environments.

My research has had significant scholarly impact in the field of educational psychology, particularly in the areas of self-regulated learning (SRL) and collaborative learning. My contributions are widely recognized for their depth and influence, and citations in leading academic journals and research globally.

My scholarly impact extends beyond academia, as I strive to:

• translate research findings into actionable strategies and practices for learners
• develop and validate self-diagnostic tools that support learners and researchers to work in partnership
• bridge the gap between theory and practice to enhance student learning experiences, academic success, and mental health and well-being
