I was born and raised in Vancouver and have been been a diehard Canucks fan since before the age of five. I am currently working on my PhD at University of Toronto in the sociological/cultural study of sport. I have lived in Toronto for all but one of the past 10 years, and living in Leafs territory has only strengthened my commitment to the 'Nucks - 10pm faceoff times be damned!
I write for Nucks Misconduct on a semi-regular basis, depending on my level of inspiration and the busyness of my schedule. I recently launched a new blog, Hockey in Society, to apply some of what I am learning at grad school to the sport I love.
