Global Engagement Staff Listing
Learn more about the Global Engagement team! Even though we're not physically in our offices on campus, we're working remotely to continue to provide you with intercultural learning opportunities and to answer any questions you have about student mobility.
We also have a great team of Global Engagement Student Ambassadors (GESAs) who are available virtually to chat and provide you with more information about being globally engaged. Find out how to connect with our GESAs.
I work on Laurier’s Waterloo campus supporting student mobility programs such as the student exchange program, faculty-led programs abroad, and international internships. I also facilitate International at Home programs including the Intercultural Certificate, and have acted as the staff advisor for the WUSC Local Committee for the past six years. As a graduate of Laurier’s Social Justice and Community Engagement (MA) program I can relate to the challenges and rewards of student life!

I enjoy supporting students who are seeking outgoing exchange opportunities to study abroad for 1 or 2 terms, or a couple of weeks in the summer. I studied in Paris for four months on exchange during my undergrad, and it was such a meaningful experience to learn about myself, my own culture and another culture. I love ice cream, yoga, talking about travel and learning words in other languages. I look forward to connecting with you!
NOTE: Allison is on leave until December 23, 2022
For any questions related to outbound exchange, please email exchange@wlu.ca
I’ve recently transitioned to working on Laurier's Brantford campus after five years of working in the same role in Waterloo. Prior to my time at Laurier, I worked in many regions of Canada and many countries around the world including Kenya, Tanzania, India, Thailand, South Africa, Ukraine, Peru and Costa Rica.
Whether you’re interested in travel and want to explore an exchange, internship or faculty-led programs abroad, or whether you’d like to explore intercultural and global engagement opportunities here on campus - like the Intercultural Certificate or Hawk 2 Hawk Program - please feel free to reach out via email or book a one-on-one appoinment.

Over the past 15 years I've been supporting students charting their future in so many ways, at so many different schools - from career planning, applying for more education, studying abroad to navigating academic decisions. I'm thrilled to be back in a Study Abroad role helping students with the logistics and decisions around international experiences. You'll find me in the International Office or on Zoom...

I have been working in post-secondary international education for over 18 years developing and supporting international mobility programs, International at Home programs, international project management and international travel risk management.
At Laurier, I manage the Global Engagement Unit, which supports our community to be engaged and aware citizens of an increasingly complex world by engaging Laurier students in experiential learning to build meaningful relationships across cultural differences; value the importance of diverse perspectives; and possess a heightened awareness and curiosity of global matters. We are committed to the transformative potential of international and intercultural education to graduate global citizens.
