Sofia (she/her) is a PhD student at York University studying Gender, Feminist and Women's studies. Her research looks at connections between residential mobility, public transit policy, and securitization in the city of Ottawa from an intersectional perspective. "I try to adopt the perspective of a scholar-activist in my work. To me this means active participation in community actions, co-producing knowledge with those impacted by inequitable policy making, and working with the community to ensure that my research furthers community interests rather than causing harm or extracting knowledge for the sake of my personal development."
