Biography:
I am a passionate advocate for quality public education and a proud member of the Pembina Trails Ward 1 community.
Along with my husband TJ and our three daughters, we have called Charleswood home for 33 years. Our daughters attended Pembina Trails schools and our grandchildren are now doing the same! Our family has always been very present and involved in the community.
I worked in the Pembina Trails School Division for over 25 years in various capacities; early years through high school, the administration office, student support services, and other departments. I served as union president, was on multiple Parent Councils, served on divisional committees and continue to volunteer in classrooms to this day. I have a well-rounded appreciation for the division and its operations as a whole. This would, in my opinion, be a huge asset in serving in the role of School Trustee.
Schools are my happy place! It feels good to be a part of the ‘team’ offering every student a safe, warm environment where they can thrive while empowering them to succeed - regardless of background, ability, or circumstance. I look forward to fully immersing myself in this role where I can advocate for our community.

I hold an Education Degree, a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics, a Post-Baccalaureate Diploma in Education, and a Master of Education in Curriculum, Teaching and Learning.
