Biography

I am a Union President, an activist, and a Douglas College instructor who has worked with youth and the community, examining local economies, inclusive housing, transit etc. I work on anti-racism initiatives and advocating for women

I enjoy travel, running, live theater, the arts, and being involved in the many diverse communities throughout Burnaby

I am running because I know that the changes made at the local level have the most impact on our daily lives. I am committed to doing the hard work and have the skills needed to make Burnaby a more liveable city

Vote for me because I am a strong collaborative leader who will bring a fresh perspective - we also need more women at the Burnaby city council table.
