As an experienced Educator dedicated to community outreach, I strive to improve the lives of children and youth through education. I eagerly seek connections with Educators and leaders equally committed to building powerful relationships (enabling us to empower others). Leveraging strong communication skills and teaching experience, I lead a diverse team of Educators passionate about improving the lives of children. Our work centers around academic achievement, health and wellness, social development, and cultural exploration. My devotion to supporting Indigenous families fuels much of my work with the YMCA of Hamilton, Burlington, and Brantford. I relish opportunities to expand and strengthen the YMCA's network of respectful partnerships with Indigenous communities.
