Originally from Newfoundland, Susan completed her Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Gender and Women鈥檚 Studies & International Development Studies at Trent University, before moving back to the east coast to pursue a Master of Arts in Women and Gender Studies at Mount Saint Vincent University. Susan鈥檚 dissertation research (co-supervised by Dr. David Black and Dr. Deborah Stienstra) identifies best practices for mitigating, through government-mandated regulatory processes, the negative social impacts that often accompany natural resource extraction in communities in Northern Canada. As resource extraction intensifies in Canada, particularly near rural, remote and Indigenous communities, this research will broaden the conversation about the responsibilities of government and corporations in relation to community impacts of resource projects. Susan鈥檚 research uses an intersectional environmental justice framework and centres on four comparative case studies: the Voisey鈥檚 Bay Nickel Mine, the Red Chris Mine, the Keeyask Generating Station and the Site C Clean Energy Project.  

More generally, Susan鈥檚 research interests include the politics of resource extraction and development, the politics of community inclusion and exclusion in governance, gender and diversity analysis as tools for policymaking, and the politics of sexual and gender-based violence. In her free time, Susan enjoys spending time outside with her dog, hiking, and kayaking, and volunteers in several roles with Girl Guides of Canada and the St. John Ambulance Therapy Dog Program.
