Trained as a social gerontologist, Gillian was formerly a research associate at the Centre for Families, Work and Well- Being at the University of Guelph, an instructor of family studies who developed and taught courses at several universities including the University of Guelph and the University of Guelph- Humber, and the Director of her own research support company, Clear Pane Research Services, which she has led for over 14 years.
