I was born and raised in Peterborough and have strong ties to this community. I’m a graduate of Peterborough Collegiate and have spent most of my professional career here. In 2005, I graduated from McMaster University in Hamilton after completing Bachelor of Arts degrees in both Sociology and Psychology.
I was born in Peterborough and have lived in this area for most of my life. After completing my B.A. in Psychology from Trent University, I moved to the GTA for several years. I returned to the Peterborough area in 2021 to enjoy a slower pace of life with my two small boys, who are now 7 and 4! I have really enjoyed re-connecting with the community and people here.
