About Me
I love stories. Ever since I was righting wrongs and triumphing over evil in the school yard, I’ve dedicated my life to the art of storytelling.
As an Honours Graduate of RRC Polytech’s Creative Communications program, I’m excited to bring my extensive work experience in film, the performing arts, and nonprofit leadership to tell cohesive stories and execute top-tier purpose-driven communications. Whether contorting myself into a pretzel to get the shot or given a can of SPAM for a food photography photoshoot, I use my resourcefulness, grit, and creative problem-solving skills to produce quality work no matter what the circumstances.
When I’m not creating, writing, or making too many puns, you can find me rummaging through thrift stores, escaping escape rooms, watching cult classics, and searching for the perfect GIF.

To tell heart-driven, cohesive stories and execute top-tier communications for inclusive companies, businesses, individuals, community groups, and nonprofit organizations.
Vision
To create inclusive spaces and heart-driven communications that make a positive impact in the community and throughout the world.
