She holds a PhD in hydrogeology from the University of Leeds (2013) and a MSc in Environmental Water Management from Cranfield University (2008) in the UK. Prior to joining the institute she was based out of Vancouver Island in British Columbia where she coordinated a regional government Drinking Water and Watershed Protection Program.
