About me
Dr. Nyasha Nyereyemhuka is an Assistant Professor of K-12 School leadership and governance at the Werklund School of Education. Dr. Nyereyemhuka joined Werklund as a previous SSHRC Postdoctoral Fellow from Queen's University's Faculty of Education. Her writing employs qualitative approaches to K-12 research and frequently interrogates how the constructs of race-and-gender inform school leaders' preparation, professional identities, well-being, policy enactment, and sensemaking. Upholding a commitment to mobilizing community-based research and equity-focused scholarship, her co-authored book chapters and journal articles have appeared in the Canadian Journal of Educational Administration and Policy, the International Journal of Leadership in Education, and Routledge editions. Further, her research contributions have been nationally recognized and honoured as a recipient of national, provincial, and university-level awards from The Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council, the Government of Ontario, and Western University, respectively.
