Reason for running

submitted by the candidate or their team
Serving our 30 public schools and 15000 students and staff has been an opportunity of a lifetime. I believe strongly that my governance and volunteer experience will make me an incredible asset to council and our community.

In 2016 I was volunteering a lot in schools, and ended up being a PAC president, and then a DPAC executive. I ran for the board of education after realizing that I was more apprised of what was happening in my sons' schools than many other candidates. After winning a seat, I worked hard to understand that role for about two years and my volunteer opportunities expanded significantly. While I still have a passion for youth and our schools, my volunteerism in food security, affordable housing and green projects attracts me to a position where I can augment that work and serve the community better.
