Raison de la candidature

soumis par le candidat ou son équipe
The short answer as to why I do the work I do, whether it be as a Counsellor, Consultant, Trustee or Advocate is to save children's lives.

The systems we live in are steeped in oppressive language that does not provide equity and equal access to education for all students. My larger body of work endeavors to create conversations, improve polices and procedures and seek avenues to inject supports for students and staff so children can grow into adulthood feeling capable and equipped to participate in society.
