Projects

This is a small sample of projects that reflects how I work across systems, people, and possibility. These projects range from speculative design to systems mapping to early-stage policy and environmental analysis.

Many of these projects touch on areas relevant to policy analysis, climate resilience, land-based design, and systems change—spaces where I hope to contribute more going forward.

Systems mapping in Canadian sport.

A relational analysis of systemic harm and governance gaps in Canadian sport. Through systems mapping and stakeholder research, I traced dynamics contributing to maltreatment and institutional inaction in elite sport. The findings highlighted structural enablers of harm and pointed toward leverage points for policy change and accountability.

Activities: Systems and stakeholder analysis, exploration an ideal future, strategy development.

Focus areas: Systems mapping, human factors, policy opportunities, governance reform, equity

The futures of Terra Nullius in space.

Exploring the policy and ethical implications of space exploration through foresight. Using critical futures methods, we analyzed how colonial logics in space exploration may mirror extractive patterns on Earth. The work surfaced long-term risks, governance gaps, and opportunities for more reciprocal space futures—deeply relevant to both space policy and environmental justice.

Activities: Trend scanning, foresight scenarios building, strategy development.

Focus areas: strategic foresight, policy and ecological ethics, earth and space governance

Persona for the earth.

Reimagined the persona tool to include non-human parties—the Earth—as an active participant in technology design. This speculative design exercise challenged anthropocentric assumptions and explored how ecological systems might be represented in digital planning conversations.

Activities: Trend scanning, persona development, scenario building, strategy development.

Focus areas: Strategic foresight, vested party ethics, policy impacts.

Bias in AI: Systemic intervention design.

Conducted systemic mapping and leverage-point analysis to trace bias mechanisms in the development of AI algorithms. Developed early-stage intervention frameworks aimed at different system levels including governance, design regulation, and equitable technology deployment.

Activities: Causal loop diagrams, three horizons scan, leverage point analysis and intervention strategy development.

Focus areas: systems analysis, bias mitigation, the role policy in ethical tech.

Policy insight: COVID-19 and Indigenous women’s safety.

A project focused on identifying how a vulnerable population has been impacted by the pandemic and which stakeholders had influence within this context. 

Activities: Research and stakeholder needs analysis.

Focus areas: policy insight, actor ecosystems.

Human factors analysis: Athlete safety in USA Gymnastics

Investigated structural and cultural breakdowns in athlete safety using human-factors frameworks. Highlighted systemic accountability gaps and recommended avenues for policy and institutional reform.

Activities: Research and analysis.

Focus areas: Human factors, governance reform, organizational safety.
