º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ

Within my Bachelor of Arts in English and Theatre, I studied a rich variety of literature, theatre, and writing in both Canada and England. Whether on the stage, in a classroom, or working within the community, exploring writing in creative ways continues to be a focus in my own learning and teaching experiences.  From Newfoundland all the way to British Columbia, I’ve taught students at a variety of secondary and post-secondary levels.  I have also worked with educators and students in leadership and collaborative roles for Literacy Education. When not in the classroom, you can follow my tracks up the subalpine trail or find me skittering along the Pacific and Atlantic shorelines.
