I’ve lived in Richmond for 20+ years and am an ordained United Church Minister. I was first elected as a school trustee when my children were attending our public schools. I served two terms on the school board, including two years as Board Chair and six as Policy Committee Chair.

I hold a B.Comm (hons) degree in finance and bring a proven record of:

• responsive, ethical leadership

• determined advocacy for students

• commitment to collaborative community engagement

• sound financial oversight

If elected I will champion:

• safe, welcoming, discrimination-free schools

• classroom supports and specialist teachers

• responsible technology

• seismic and childcare-friendly facilities upgrades

• respectful, transparent decision-making processes

Current community service:

• Member of the Richmond Poverty Reduction Coalition

• President, Granville Gardens Housing Co-op

• Board of Governors, Vancouver School of Theology

I’m running with Empower Education Richmond. Let’s work together to equip our students to shape their future with confidence!
