Thank you so very much for visiting my website.  Hopefully it brought you a smile or 

inspiration to get going... and do something you love.

​

I majored in Fine Arts as a Student in Highschool with a minor in dramatic arts while attending Cawthra Park SS in Mississauga Ontario.  I spent my teenage years as a member of the Royal Canadian Air Cadets, as a member of 845 Mississauga.  I enrolled as a Reservist in the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) in June of 1990. I have worked in this same program through many units, and have held a number of leadership positions at the local or area level, most recently stepping down after a four plus year term as the Commanding Officer of 2818 RC(Army)CC, in Belleville.

​

Backing up a little, Post Secondary, I attended the Ontario College of Art, followed by a sharp left turn, attending Georgian College Barrie Campus, where I graduated with a diploma in Law & Security Administration.

 

This then took me to a "Y" in the road, and spent several years working in the Pharmaceutical, Bilingual Customer Service world... then another sharp turn into the Tire Business with the best tire manufacturer there is, Bridgestone-Firestone.   With Bridgestone,  I travelled all over Ontario and many parts of North America, and eventually moved to Eastern Ontario. 

​

A speed bump, and corporate restructuring, brought me back to pursuing a full time Reserve Career in the CAF. After Several years on contract work, I moved onto working in School transportation with the amazing Triboard team.

​

I left Triboard to focus on family and currently Supply Teach for the Algonquin & Lakeshore Catholic District School Board and a member of the Rustic Mama Retreats team as a program facilitator.   I enjoy being a supply teacher for the Algonquin & Lakeshore Catholic District Schoolboard.  Somehow, I also find the time to  help my loving and ever supportive veteran husband (and Stork delivery guy) grow his First Aid Training, and Wilderness Survival business... ( www.FACTPlus.ca ). 

 

I am a work-a-holic proud mum of Furry Kids (Kids) Argus and Paxil
