Colleen Elep is a freelance writer, long-time middle school educator, and the founder of the award-winning Undoctrin8 blog. As an educator Colleen experienced difficulty finding a space to share her voice and perspective. Through blogging and writing, she discovered a pathway to actualize agency as an author and creator.

She writes about multilingualism, books, critical pedagogy, and expanding the way educators think about Canadian outdoor spaces with her writing partner Chad Mills.
