Mitchell

PhD Candidate
Department of History,
University of Saskatchewan

I am a PhD Candidate in the University of Saskatchewan's Department of History with a strong background in histories of gender, sexuality, Canada, law, and labour. My research focuses on Canadian women’s legal, cultural and social histories, focused on three high profile Supreme Court of Canada divorce cases and their aftermath. Raised in the prairies and from a long line of shrewd women, my work seeks to place the remarkable experiences of women in Canada's fly-over-provinces into the transnational context in which they belong. I enjoy investigating and applying innovative strategies for teaching and tutoring higher education students about the fascinating, surprising, and sometimes challenging world of history reading, research and writing.
