Having served on the Vancouver Centre EDA, and as vice chairperson of the Green Party of Vancouver, I have the perspective and experience that will help represent the voices of BC on Federal Council. On these boards, I have helped foster a safe, inclusive environment, where voices are fairly heard and respected. Currently residing in Vancouver, I was born and raised in the Lower Mainland. After earning a BFA in Theatre at UVic, I continued my career in the entertainment industry, working in theatre, film, and video games, developing skills in production and facilities management. I am extremely fortunate that my work has taken me all over BC, touring from Vancouver to Victoria, Haida Gwaii, and beyond. I recently worked on the inspiring Vancouver East federal campaign, helping with logistics and strategic direction. My proudest Green achievement lies with the 2018 Vancouver municipal election, where we elected 9 of 10 candidates, delivering the largest Green caucus in Canada. Over that campaign, I took the lead on locating and renovating the campaign office, offered logistical advice, and organized the filming and release of 60+ campaign videos.
If elected I will focus on these three objectives:
- Listening to the members of our EDAs, communication is key to us moving forward.
- Advocating for the reallocation of resources for an office space and staff in BC.
- Actioning on diversity/inclusion, these are the foundations on which we will grow the party and move forward, together.
