As a former K-12 Educator and Administrator who has worked in schools around the world as well as at home in Canada, Kathy's diverse research portfolio is unified through the exploration of issues related to the organization of schools and school systems for student well-being. As a former Science and Technology educator, as well as calling Nunavut her first home, her research is underpinned by understandings of place, land based education and issues of systemic (in)justice. As a qallunaat (non-Inuit person) who grew up in Nunavut, Dr. Snow has experienced the education system of the territory from multiple perspectives which has led her to research in service of her first home.
