My Story
Before joining Pathway to Hope, I had the privilege of working in several impactful roles in the Waterloo Region. Each organization offered unique programs to support different groups of people—from infants to youth to adults—all facing unique struggles. These contrasting experiences shaped my understanding of the challenges faced in our community and the critical need for comprehensive support services.
​
My journey into the field of mental health and addiction began by witnessing the struggles of my own friends and family, along with my own personal mental health path. This personal connection fueled my dedication to addressing the gaps in our community's support systems. Over the past six years working in this field, I've learned what works and what doesn't, and I've identified the areas where we still have much work to do. With the closure of safe consumption sites and live-in programs across Ontario, the need for innovative and effective programming is more urgent than ever.
​
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, including my four amazing kiddos, as well as cooking, baking, reading, and watching movies with family and friends. These activities keep me grounded and inspire me to bring fresh ideas to my work here at Pathway to Hope.
​
I am incredibly proud to be part of Pathway to Hope. We are committed to offering comprehensive, compassionate, and holistic care to all youth in need, with the goal of bridging gaps, reducing stigma, and transforming lives for the better. Every day, I work towards building a stronger organization to create positive change in our community. I envision a future where mental health and addiction support is accessible to all, and together, we can make this vision a reality.

I am excited to share our journey with you. Join us in making a difference and be a part of our mission to foster resilience and hope.
