I am a mother, sister, aunt, and daughter born and raised in Vancouver.

I have completed two degrees from the University of British Columbia. An undergraduate degree in Linguistics (specializing in language acquisition in children) and a Master of Arts Degree in Special Education,

I worked for 14 years as an Infant Development Consultant. For the past 11 years, I worked as a Key Worker for the CDBC Program in the lower mainland. I have certifications in STAT (screening tool for Autism in Toddlers and Young Children), Watch, Wait and Wonder, Group facilitation and Developmental Parenting.

I have developed groups for parents, children, and youth. I have facilitated trainings for school district personnel, ministry social workers, and foster parents.

I have a passion for working with caregivers of individuals with FASD. I believe in working collaboratively to expand understanding, help navigate systems, develop support systems, and find appropriate resources. I believe that expanded knowledge of FASD and networking with other caregivers is necessary for families to feel supported and build strength and resiliency.

In my work, I have found that “it takes a village to raise children” is especially true, and I hope to help families find and develop their village.
