As a candidate in the Marine Management program at Dalhousie University, Aimee hopes to conduct research that utilizes interdisciplinary thinking in the context of Indigenous fisheries. This way of thinking was brought on during Aimee’s undergraduate career, at Queens University where she considered and further analyzed the connection between the natural world and humans through a geographic lens. Aimee’s knowledge of planning and policy making is something she intends to apply when evaluating how social, ecological, and economic dimensions play a role in sustainable fisheries management. As she continues her research, Aimee is interested in conceptualizing how management regimes that lack equitable and dynamic governance techniques impact Indigenous fisheries on both national and international scales.

When she is not sailing with her family, Aimee enjoys running and playing squash.
