Me in Brief

I have over ten years' experience in working on corporate social responsibility issues from consumer and investor perspectives.

Currently I manage the Global Unions Committee on Workers' Capital (CWC), an international labour union network committeed to the responsible investment of workers' retirement savings. The CWC is hosted at SHARE, a Canadian leader in responsible investment services, research and education for institutional investors. SHARE is also a signatory to the UNPRI.

I am the recipient of a Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council Doctoral Fellowship, which supports my PhD research into the normative influences of pension funds on CSR in emerging markets. I am pursuing this work at the University of British Columbia's Department of Political Science.
