Kimberly Hill-Tout

Kim is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Geography and Planning. The first part of her work focuses on meal kit delivery programs and consumer identity negotiations in relation to foodscapes and culinary discourses. This research lies at the intersection of diet politics and identity (re)formation. Secondly, Kim has been advancing public scholarship and university-community research collaborations. Specifically, this research is focused on decolonizing academic outputs and community relationships with Indigenous organizations around the Katarowki/Kingston area.

Alongside pursuing her doctoral studies, Kim also serves on several student unions, with a focus on advancing I-EDIAA principles and actions at Queen’s. In her role as an Education Development Associate with the CTL, she is excited to bring her experience with international development facilitation and critical pedagogies, and advance her own understanding and familiarity with educational development in the university context!
