Talking salmon with students
When in the field in the small community of Likely, BC, I had the opportunity to talk about my research with local students. The students spent a couple days at the Quesnel River Research Centre and they joined me in the field to gain hands on experience catching salmon from the river. We also discussed my research and talked about the importance of Pacific salmon to the ecosystem.

University Research Showcase
As a graduate student, I was often involved in efforts to showcase some of the research happening in my department at the University. As part of the "Science Rendezvous", I gave tours around the department to talk about the science and highlight some of our amazing facilities. I was also involved in the Research Showcase at the Devonshire mall, where we engaged community members in our local research efforts.
