Riley is currently completing a pre-law degree with a concentration in public policy and emergency legislation at Royal Roads University in British Columbia, Canada. Prior to attending Royal Roads, Riley completed a Diploma in Emergency Management through the Justice Institute of British Columbia and is a passionate instructor and trainer of first aid, lifesaving and national lifeguard for the Canadian Lifesaving Society. Serving on the Leadership Committee and Program Advisory Group since 2017 for the British Columbia and Yukon Branch, he has received a service commendation, service medal and president’s award for his contributions to drowning prevention.
Attending the World Conference on Drowning Prevention in 2017 as an Emerging Leader, the IDRA Emerging Researchers workshop piqued an interest in drowning research for Riley. His research interests involve studying community drowning prevention strategies for British Columbia’s vast waterways, lakes, rivers and coast. Outside of research, Riley demonstrates his commitment to supporting the Lifesaving Society’s mission and vision by writing, producing, and being a technical expert on a number of projects.
