Meet the team

Kristen Bencze’s been a member of CHASI since September 2022 and is thrilled to be a part of the research crew. She is in her final semester at UFV earning a degree in criminology and a minor in sociology. Kristen’s penchant to learn knew information and meet new people serves her well as a CHASI research assistant. She hopes one day to utilize the knowledge and skills she’s gained at UFV by becoming a mediator in the field of family law.

When she’s not busy conducting research, Kristen’s happily running her own business as co-owner of a doggie-daycare or sitting down in front of the keyboard or drums to bang out some of her favourite tunes.
