What unites so many of us at @aejmc.bsky.social is the love of teaching. Teaching was my first love in the academy—I found joy in helping early journalism student get their first published works. For #futurefriendlyaejmc, I envision teaching as reciprocal and at the very heart of our mission!

I am over the moon!! ❣️ My new book just arrived at my house. I ripped it open so fast. Finally holding it in my hands. 🙏🥰📖

None of us are solely academics. We’re parents and children, brothers, sisters, friends. A #futurefriendlyAEJMC honors and supports the “whole scholar.” We can engage with @aejmc.bsky.social when we have the support to do so.

I have some exciting personal news to share: On April 1st, I'll join @ikmz.bsky.social at University of Zurich for a professorship labelled Media Psychology and Methods! I'm quite excited and very much looking forward to this new chapter and incredible opportunity!

Two takeaways from last week's @acadianjprof.bsky.social lecture on joy in journalism: -Journalists find joy in storytelling, connections & unique perspectives.

#AEJMC! In the VP role, and in my vision for #futurefriendlyaejmc, you can expect me to promote mentorship. We don’t all find great mentors in our grad programs, we don’t all find mentors at work (I’ve been lucky enough to have both!) but to me @aejmc.bsky.social is a natural hub for mentorship.

It’s culture night at my kid’s grade school and the Perreaults are here for Acadia! Proud of our heritage. We talked about Evangeline of the Acadie and shared some ployes and beans (Kyrie was actually excited but I stopped her from running around with friends to take the picture 😅)

💫Two years since I made the decision to leave my previous uni for @usouthflorida.bsky.social 💫 No move is an easy one: my previous uni with its people, processes, and problems was *comfortable.* Would I be able to do what I could do there in a new environment? Would I be able to do more?
