I hold a diploma in Social Service Work from St. Lawrence College, which I earned in 2016.

Since March 2022, I have been part of the Practicum Office within the Faculty of Education. My combined background in social services and legal support enables me to approach my work with a solution-focused mindset and a strong commitment to compassionate, client-centered service.
