About the speaker:
This webinar event will feature Jayne Armstrong, a recent graduate of the University of Toronto who is excited to bring her passion for creating equitable public spaces to 8 80 Cities. As an avid beach bum, Jayne has taken her passions for public space and applied them to her research on reclaiming the nebulous public-private beachfront in Scarborough for everyone. She previously worked at Bike Share Toronto and continues her passion for cycling all year round. Either by foot or by cycle, Jayne loves exploring the neighbourhoods of Toronto in search of the unique built form and pocket parks.
