With over 45 years of experience in community outreach and engagement, I have dedicated my life to building relationships, inspiring connections, mentoring youth, and supporting communities through meaningful initiatives. My work has empowered countless individuals and organizations, fostering resilience and collaboration to create a brighter and more inclusive future for all.

In 2012, I was honored to receive the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medal, recognizing my lifelong commitment to community service and my dedication to making a difference. This milestone represents decades of passion, perseverance, and a vision to uplift and inspire those around me.

Beyond my professional achievements, I am an adventurer at heart, finding inspiration and joy in the beauty of nature. Whether hiking rugged trails, exploring caves, or scaling cliffs, I thrive on the thrill of discovery and the serenity of the outdoors. These experiences fuel my creativity and determination, reminding me of the boundless possibilities life has to offer.

In my downtime, I enjoy cooking, baking, and decorating for celebrations throughout the year—small joys that connect me with loved ones and traditions. I also unwind by reading, watching Netflix or embracing my love for exploration, often seeking out unique spots to visit during holidays.

My adventurous spirit and love for pushing boundaries have shaped my approach to life and work. I’ve embraced challenges with a big smile and a heart full of curiosity.

As a professional risk-taker and mentor, I’ve spent my career encouraging others to step outside their comfort zones, build meaningful relationships, and create lasting change. Together, we can continue to make Edmonton a vibrant, safe, and thriving city for everyone.
