“I worked with Jennifer on a recent project where we wanted to make sure an Indigenous perspective was meaningfully included in a training on gender-based violence in work camps.

Jennifer brought so much to the project. She has an incredible depth of knowledge, but what I appreciated most was the way she added both the historical and present-day context that helped us bridge the connections of colonialism and the on-going impacts. She was also very thoughtful about relationship-building and how we approached the content.

My team was honestly blown away by our meetings with her. We always came away feeling like we had learned something new or had something important to think about.

Jennifer was such a valuable part of the project, and I would absolutely recommend working with her.”

“Jennifer was an integral and incredible support in helping with the re-establishment of the Resident Group Tables at RayCam Co-operative, particularly in relation to community advocacy surrounding the municipal election.

She was able to ground the group while providing meaningful education around lateral violence in a way that was accessible, community-based, flexible, and welcoming. Jennifer created space for honest dialogue, learning, and connection, helping community residents feel supported and engaged throughout the process.

We truly loved having Jennifer as part of this initiative. Her support played an important role in helping us get the Resident Group Tables started off in a good way, and we are grateful for the care, knowledge, and energy she brought to the work.”

She consistently goes the extra mile with students and clients, as she is genuinely invested in their success and accomplishments. Her patience in teaching, her leadership, loyalty and her kindness towards others stand out.

Jennifer brings generosity, flexibility and a positive spirit to every situation. Her humility, dedication and the warmth she carries makes Jennifer someone people are simply glad to know.”
