Graduand Speaker
Shannon Peltier has graduated with a Master of Education in Educational Leadership: Indigenous Resurgence. She is of Cree, Métis, Dene, French and British descent and is a member of Fort McMurray First Nation in Alberta.
She originally came to B.C. to pursue a career in culinary arts, and after 16 years in the restaurant industry, returned to school to become an Indigenous Education Advocate within the local school district. She then moved into youth programming and outreach with the Osoyoos Indian Band. She has been learning the local nsyilxcən language and has co-taught the language to youth for several summers. She hopes to continue working for First Nation Bands and supporting the resurgence of local Indigenous education. Shannon thanks the Lower Similkameen Indian Band for welcoming her into this program.

Meghan Parker was the first Canadian to complete a comic book thesis in an autobiographical form at SFU. The 236-page thesis explored Parker's personal experiences and reflections as a new teacher in the public-school system.
"Since graduating, I've continued teaching visual arts in North Vancouver, making art, and I now have a 3 year and 1 year old twins! I am mentoring SFU teacher candidates and am considering a return to SFU in the fall to resume work with Dr. Lynn Fels and make more comics!"
Dominic Trevisan developed a research program using cutting-edge facial expression analysis software that helps to illustrate why some individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) have difficulties using facial expressions and how this is related to the processing of emotions.
"Since graduating, I've been working remotely for a Medical Communications agency based in New York City. I work with pharmaceutical companies to develop disease education content geared towards healthcare professionals about new treatment options and evolving treatment guidelines for various diseases."
