Born in Ontario and raised in the serene beauty of Nanaimo on Vancouver Island, I’ve spent the past 18 years as a devoted stay-at-home mom, raising two incredible teens alongside my loving husband. The ocean has always been my place of peace and reflection, grounding me through life’s ever-changing tides. My journey into community service began with volunteering at the Nanaimo Community Hospice, where I discovered a deep calling to support others through compassion and presence. I now proudly serve as the Hospice’s receptionist, continuing to offer warmth and connection to all who walk through our doors. Empathy, kindness, and love are the values I carry into every relationship and role. I believe wholeheartedly that everyone deserves support, no matter their story.
