Graduating from Handsworth Secondary in 2012, I studied at SFU and graduated with a B.A. in political science. Through my education, I have seen the benefit of lifelong and continual learning. With the lenses of patience and open-mindedness I proactively look to find common ground. Additionally, I do my best to be aware that there is always a new perspective to consider and more to learn.

I love swimming and teaching. My swimming experience as a lifeguard/instructor for ten years, our recreational facilities are vital to both our community’s mental and physical well-being. The facilities that we have in place should have the ability to both serve the present needs as well as invest into the community’s future. My teaching experience as a volunteer for Cheakamus Centre outdoor educational program, a YMCA camp leader for teen youth leadership, and as an education assistant for SD 45 means I understand the need for substantive, supportive programs to help reduce the cost of living and improve affordability.

Political research has always been a passion of mine. Data driven policy is essential to make actionable and incremental positive changes within the community. I started by volunteering for Former MP Jonathan Wilkinson from Sept 2016-Dec 2016, helping compile, sort and organize data and files. I have experience on the federal NDP level volunteering as a research, data, and debate analyst for Justine Bell (2019) and Tammy Bentz (2021 and 2025). With what I’ve learned on these campaigns I aim at addressing important community issues such as Affordable Housing, Transportation Alternatives, Cost of Living, and many more.

My community experience includes volunteering within the North Vancouver City and District to familiarize myself with the processes required to effectively implement change. I served on the Community Service Advisory Committee (2019-2021) for the District of North Vancouver to learn about quality of life concerns and address them by assisting non-profits within the community. In the City of North Vancouver, I serve on the Integrated Transportation Committee (2021-2023) to develop an understanding of current policy and the effects of new development on traffic flow. I also currently serve as President for my Strata Council since 2021, working with fellow homeowners and strata management when it comes to dealing with specific homeowner issus to dealing with developer issues.

I would love to hear your experiences in the community and how I can support you and your family.
