CURRENT MISSION

Be responsible and have fun!

ABOUT ME

I'm a busy body who loves to learn. I've worked for Purdy's Chocolate, Starbucks Coffee, MAC cosmetics, Holt Renfrew (Shu Uemura), Killarney Fitness (aerobics instructor for 10 years and weight trainer for 6 years) and currently I'm a TOC.

I live a very healthy life style and enjoy all sorts of sports such as running, soccer, field hockey, basketball, biking and some water sports.

I spend a lot of my time with my family and friends when I'm not working or going to school. I'm currently pursuing my post baccalaureate for Early Childhood Education at Simon Fraser University. I believe you can never stop learning.

I love waking up in the morning and making a good cup of coffee or venturing to one of my favorite cafes on the Drive. Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day and I'm also a morning person.

Last summer I went to Laval University, Quebec City, to study French. Since that experience it has opened my eyes to traveling and meeting people. There is so much to learn and so much to see. I hope to bring my experiences back to the classroom where I can inspire children. Every morning I'm grateful to work at a job that I love. It's meaningful and rewarding. I love teaching the little ones because they are so raw and honest.

PHILOSOPHY

I live to teach and learn.
My teaching philosophy is based on RESPECT. Respecting each other, respecting yourself and the world that we live in. Be responsible and make better environmental choices.
Help and care for each other.
A good balance of the body, mind and spirit.
Have a positive attitude.
