I am currently working in Omàmìwinnìnì territory, in the valley of the Kiji Sibi (the Ottawa River), in particular in Lanark County and areas where there has not to date been formal recognition of Omàmìwinnìnì communities by the federal government. I am working together with communities to articulate the ways in which oral ways of knowing have been sustained, and have contributed to community governance, through generations. Together we are exploring aging and the life course as it relates to intergenerational roles within communities, and the ways in which memory and aging interrelate in the context of oral histories held by communities, and sustained by land and place.

I am also developing projects related to health care and aging in the city of Omaha, in what is now Nebraska, with particular focus on the experiences of older women in formal and informal caregiving roles.
