Culinaria Research Centre
The Culinaria Research Centre, operated out of the University of Toronto Scarborough, is a multidisciplinary center that incorporates research as well as undergraduate and local community engagement. Culinaria projects and events engage with the major questions in the field of food studies including: the place of food in cultural identity and expression; the relationship between food, diaspora, and inter-ethnic/inter-cultural contact in Canada and beyond; commodity production and labor, from slavery to the age of empire to the present-day; the links between food systems, health, gender, and family.
Catherine held a Doctoral Fellowship at the Culinaria Research Centre from 2017-2018 and continues to support the centre's work on food, culture, and society.

Historians on Housewives
Historians on Housewives is directed by Kacey Calahane, Dr. Jessica Millward, and Max Speare. Historians on Housewives brings together scholars from interdisciplinary backgrounds to explain The Housewives phenomenon, and to explore how issues of race, gender, class, and sexuality can better shape understandings of American and world history. This project utilizes a popular archive (Bravo programming) to connect historical issues to the present - because academics watch Bravo too!
Catherine is "Bravo-demic" and will appear on an episode of the Historians on Housewives podcast in 2020.
