Nancy-Jean Pément is from the Outaouais region of Québec where she was raised in a bi-racial, bilingual, and multicultural family.

Her poems have been published in literary magazines in the US and in Canada. Her poem, Migration, was a finalist for the 2014 Common Good Books poetry contest. In 2015, her piece, PHL>YOW, was the Editor’s Choice for Poem of the Year in ARC Poetry Magazine.

In 2018-2019, in collaboration with the California Museum of Art, Thousand Oaks (CMATO) and the painter, Kevin Sloan, she curated ekphrastic poetry by local poets to accompany the exhibit A Collection of Rarities. Nancy’s poem Snowperson Wonders at What is Left of the World inspired by Kevin’s painting, The Inevitability of Warmth, was exhibited at the museum.

Most recently, her poems appear in La fille de Léonard: What québécois cultural sovereignty taught me about working with historically marginalized students, a chapter in the book, Campus Service Workers Supporting First-Generation Students published by Routledge in November 2021.

Currently, she is working on a study of racial, ethnic, political-linguistic, and citizenship identities to be published in the peer-reviewed journal, Genealogy. Nancy teaches in the Graduate School of Education at CSU Channel Islands, and in the Doctor of Education program at CLU.
