I am a passionate advocate for students and families and am proud to have called Cochrane home for the last 18 years. Focused on student success, responsible governance and meaningful collaboration, I have had the honour of serving as Cochrane’s public school board trustee for Rocky View Schools for the past 12 years.

I am a proud parent of two young adults – one studying Criminal Justice at Mount Royal University and one exploring their next steps – and understand the joys and challenges of navigating school systems and supporting kids on unique paths. I continue to deepen my knowledge in leadership, governance, and education to lead with empathy, insight and respect.

I am a dedicated and trusted trustee with over a decade of experience and maintain strong connections with parents through active engagement with school councils. My educational background, complemented by advanced leadership and governance training, reinforces my commitment to effective, values-driven leadership focused on student success and responsible decision-making.

I am an engaged member of the Cochrane community committed to creating spaces where people feel connected and welcomed. As manager of the Cochrane Movie House for more than 15 years, I’ve had the privilege of mentoring youth and helping create a warm, inclusive space for families and community. As a member of Cochrane SINGS!, I also enjoy sharing the joy of music and community through song.

I am deeply committed to ensuring our schools provide supportive environments that offer every child the chance to learn, grow and reach their full potential. I am running for re-election to continue serving my community and advocating tirelessly for our students, families, and educators. Together, we can build a brighter future for all.
