PhD Student and Registered Social Worker




Hi, I'm Vincent! I use they/them pronouns, and I am a Black, queer and trans activist and registered social worker based in Tiohtià:ke (Montréal, QC). 
I'm also a Vanier Scholar and PhD in Health student at Dalhousie University, where I study the barriers to health and social service access faced by Black gay, bi, trans, and queer men, other Black men who have sex with men. as well as masculine-of-center non-binary people in Canada.
This page is my home on the web. It mainly highlights my academic career and social work practice for the time being, but I am looking forward to making this space mine over the coming months. In the interim, please explore the menu above to learn more about my academic and professional experience.

I am privileged to live, play, and work in Tiohtià:ke, unceded Indigenous territory also colonially referred to as Montréal, Québec, Canada. This territory has long served as a meeting place between nations, and the Kanien'kehá:ka are recognized as the keepers of these lands and waters.

I am a student at Dalhousie University. Located in Mi'kma'ki, it operates on the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi'kmaq. This territory is covered by the Peace and Friendship Treaties, established between the Mi’kmaq, Wolastoqiyik and Passamaquoddy Nations and the British Crown between 1725 and 1779. These treaties remain in force, and as such, we are all Treaty people.

With collective rights tied to over 52 land-based communities, I also recognize the ongoing presence of African Nova Scotians. As a distinct people whose histories, legacies, and contributions have enriched that part of Mi’kma’ki known as Nova Scotia for over 400 years, I am honoured to have the opportunity to collaborate actively with African Nova Scotian communities in my work.
