I’m passionate about community, with a strong commitment to public service. I believe in community participation in decision-making processes and fair treatment of all voices. I am committed to promoting inclusivity and respect.

I have worked for two federal departments: Fisheries and Oceans Canada and Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada. I hold a PhD in Resource and Environmental Management from Simon Fraser University and a Master of Science in Environmental Policy and Regulation from the London School of Economics.

What I Bring

  • Strategic thinking and policy analysis 
  • Strong ethics and moral compass
  • Collaborative approach to building consensus
  • An understanding of how to advocate for local needs at higher government levels
