I was born and raised to a farming family in Humboldt. I served my community by teaching Sp Ed in Drake, Nokomis and Humboldt. I have co-founded a water resource company which works provincially. I have completed the Civil Engineering Water Resources Technologist Program.

I am passionate about the need for change in this province. I grew up on a mixed farm. I am a teacher with over twenty five years experience in rural, urban and First Nations schools and have a Masters of Education.
