Angeline is a third-year Ph.D. student in Environmental Sociology.

Her current thesis explores the interplay between the identities of Albertan oil workers and their resistance to climate change action. Angeline’s other research interests include theoretical understandings and applications of queer ecology and green criminology, social impact assessments, and the relationship between social media and identity. Her work centers on decolonial and intersectional feminist lenses and, she prioritizes social justice in all of her work.
