I recently graduated from St. Francis Xavier University with a degree in Biology and am constantly amazed at the wonders of the natural world. Originally from Collingwood, Ontario, I have completed past work in outdoor education, conservation and biological fieldwork, which has solidified my enthusiasm for the fusion of science with the humanities. My position in Malawi working with the Malawi Organic Growers Association and Farmer’s Union of Malawi will involve both the scientific portion of assessing and developing organic management plans and building upon current administrative practices. Agricultural sustainability truly is one of Malawi’s most pressing issues and I look forward to the adventure and the knowledge that awaits me.
