She is concerned with women’s differential expectations and demands in areas like extreme sports and outdoors. Through her feminist, intersectional and antiracist values, she fights gender discrimination against minorities.  She is also Equity Commissioner at GSAED (Graduate Student Association of the University of Ottawa). In addition to being on several decolonial and anti-racist committees at the university, she facilitates part-time healing sessions for racialized students.
