Skills Canada Alberta is entering its 25th year of promoting careers in skilled trades and technologies for Alberta's youth. This takes place with annual provincial skills competitions at the high school and post-secondary levels, trades explorations - a new program to introduce trades to the junior high level students and the GETT (Girls Exploring Trades & Technologies) Conference. I am really proud of the work that Skills does to promote trades and educate Alberta youth and their parents about the value of a career in the trades and look forward to an exciting 25th year.

I brought my passion for engagement and for building community to this exciting role with the Building Trades of Alberta. With over 75,000 skilled building trade professionals in 16 trade unions across Alberta, as well as owners, contractors, people thinking about getting into the trades and even the public at large, there is an amazing opportunity to create a strategic communications program which will encourage all stakeholders to engage more fully and see the BTA as the source for information and support with regard to the building trades.

I combine Bachelor’s degrees in both Commerce and Education and an executive MBA with nearly twenty years of varied leadership, education and facilitation experience. I have extensive experience in the not-for-profit and public sectors where I use my training as a teacher to engage with clients, focusing on building rapport and skills. I continue to use my varied experience to ensure that participants are engaged and energized by my training sessions and look forward to interacting with clients more directly in the future.
