Director of Knowledge Management at Gambling Research Exchange (Canada), and Adjunct Faculty, Department of Recreation & Leisure Studies, University of Waterloo (Canada)
"
I joined ISQOLS in 2012 when I began working for the Canadian Index of Wellbeing. It seemed like a perfect venue to present my research pertaining to indicator development for the time use domain. I’m pleased to report that I was not mistaken! Feedback at presentations, opportunities to attend pre-conference workshops, and conversations with established quality-of-life scholars are some of the main benefits of being involved."
