About

My passion for communications, connecting people and creativity has lead me into a career in public relations. I focused on a degree in communications and marketing from Simon Fraser University to give me a more experience and knowledge in this area. From there I have worked with clients in industries ranging from professional sport, education and government. My areas of expertise focus on community relations, public relations and communications. I am fascinated with effective communication that can improve teamwork, enable decision making, and successfully problem solve. Creatively.
