I am a proud mother to a nearly 32-year-old individual who has been a source of joy and inspiration in my life. Additionally, I am thrilled to be a grandmother to an incredibly energetic and fun-loving 4-year-old, whose boundless enthusiasm never ceases to amaze me. To complete my little family, I am also a devoted pet parent to the most adorable Maltese-Shitzu dog named Coco, who is truly a wonder dog in every sense of the word.
Having spent the majority of my life in the beautiful Durham Region, I have developed a deep appreciation for the natural beauty and charm of the area. In my free time, I love nothing more than to indulge my passion for paddleboarding, which allows me to connect with nature and experience the beauty of my surroundings in a uniquely peaceful way. Additionally, I am a hobby renovator and enjoy taking on various projects around my home to create a space that is both comfortable and beautiful.
Finally, I am an avid mountain enthusiast, and I always try to make time to spend in the mountains as much as possible. There is something about the majesty and grandeur of these natural wonders that never fails to inspire me and fill me with a sense of awe and wonder.
As a Managing Broker and Leadership Member with the largest independently owned RE/MAX Franchise in Canada, I have a strong passion for fundraising. Amongst my various fundraising experiences, one of my most memorable ones was paddle boarding from Toronto to Ottawa in 2021, and in 2022, I undertook another challenge of paddle boarding across Lake Okanagan to raise over $150,000 for the Children’s Miracle Network Charity. It was a challenging yet rewarding experience to contribute towards a noble cause and make a positive impact in the lives of those in need.
