I now work with the Loran Scholars Foundation, supporting national selection, volunteer training, and equity initiatives that identify and develop young leaders across Canada. My work continues to be guided by sustainability principles—centring equity, interdisciplinary systems thinking, and long-term community impact in every context I engage with.
