Professional Bio (tell other park leaders about yourself)
I’ve worked on beautiful Cape Breton Island for Parks Canada for almost 10 years now. Prior to this, I was in Nunavut with Indian and Northern Affairs Canada and the Office of the Premier of Nunavut. My background is primarily issues management, communications and partner engagement. I chair the communications task team for the Bras d’Or Lakes Collaborative Environmental Planning Initiative and serve as a board member on Synergy Louisbourg. When not working, I am an active “Big” for Big Brothers, Big Sisters and love spending time with my 3 year old Nessa.
