Community Involvement:
I believe that volunteer work and being involved in the community is incredibly important. Giving back not only helps strengthen the place we live, but also creates real connections with the people around us. Contributing time and energy to community initiatives builds trust, support, and a sense of belonging that benefits everyone
Over the years, I’ve been fortunate to be involved in a variety of community spaces—from volunteering at Cedar Hill Recreation Centre teaching childresn pottery classes, to being active with the Moss Street Market. Today, I continue to support organizations that make a lasting impact, serving on the Board of Directors for the Greater Victoria Women’s Shelter and giving time each week to Habitat for Humanity. Each experience has deepened my commitment to building stronger, more connected communities
