ABOUT ME

I'm originally from a small town in the Rocky Mountains. I've just moved to Montreal where I'm going to University. I'm studying linguistics and Arabic studies. I'm also an actress. My dream is to combine my two great loves (acting and languages) and work as an actor in as many languages as possible!

PHILOSOPHY

I'm here to learn.

Music, Movies, and Books

The last movie I saw was Inception. It's a winner, that Leo DiCaprio sure knows how to pick 'em! I'm also really into asian cinema right now, my recent favourite is Kung Fu Hustle.

Right now I'm reading a book called 'A Fair Country' by John Raulston Saul. It's about how important the First Nations people are to the history and the future of Canada, and how we as a nation will never realise our full potential until we embrace our shared history with the Aboriginal people. It is a truly wonderful book

My favourite songs right now are '50 ways to leave your lover' by Paul Simon, and 'Tall Trees' by Matt Mays. There are also a lot of amazing bands coming out of Vancouver right now including Mother Mother, the Zolas, and so many whose names I forget.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

cut off all my hair, travelled in the Middle East by myself

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you what I know about Turtle Island, and the many nations that share the land here. The original inhabitans of this land are slowly regaining their voices. I honour the true history of my country, which isn't always pretty.
