She also teaches graduate level courses on theory (MA Criminology and Social Justice) and justice policy (PhD Policy Studies), and has supervised graduate students in related fields.

Anne-Marie鈥檚 research interests concern critical and anti-racist criminology; contemporary social and political theory; moral philosophy; policing; social control; and governance. She recently launched a digital project on the contributions made by racialized and Indigenous individuals as criminal justice professionals. The Criminal Justice Firsts Project is a collaborative undertaking with Mandissa Arlain, a librarian, and is intended as a research and teaching resources for 91福利 members and the wider community. Anne-Marie is also a co-investigator on a SSHRC funded program of research on policing reform in post-Soviet Ukraine. Together with Dr. Matthew Light, a political scientist at the University of Toronto, the concern is to compare private security regulation in post-Soviet Ukraine and Estonia thereby adding to the current theorizing on security and policing which is limited by its Anglosphere focus.
