On behalf of UBC Forestry, congratulations to Jessica Quinton, PhD Candidate in the Department of Forest and Resources Management, on receiving a UBC Killam Graduate Teaching Assistant Award!

About Jessica’s Research

Jessica Quinton

Jessica’s research focuses on the link between urban greening initiatives and gentrification in Canada. She is interested in learning about the impact that urban forestry and urban greening has on cities and their residents. Jessica is also part of a wider SSHRC-funded product, led by Dr. Lorien Nesbitt, studying green gentrification and urban forest governance in Vancouver and Toronto, Canada.
