Biography

Hometown: Ottawa, ON

Q: What excites you the most about living on campus as an RD?

Residence Life is so rich and getting to connect with students and meeting them where they’re at to celebrate successes, mourn through hard times, learn, grow and have fun together is such a privilege!

Q: If you could take a group of TWU students anywhere in the world to do anything, where would you go and what would you do?

I would take them to Morocco to go do some camping in the Sahara Desert and maybe ride some quads and do some sand-surfing, oh and eat the best food!  

Q: What is your favourite hobby or activity?

I am a huge sports fan so any live sporting event - I am convinced that stadiums and arenas have the best snacks!

Q: What is the best book you have most recently read?

My all time favourite book is Scary Close by Donald Miller - it has taught me a lot about vulnerability and authenticity and that being fully yourself is always worth the risk. 

Q: What are your Clifton top 5 Strengths?

Developer, Harmony, Empathy, Adaptability & Positivity
