Living in small-town Alberta, every day is a new page in the exciting story I get to live. If you were to drop by, you’d probably find me engrossed in a myriad of activities. Whether I'm setting up a canvas to start a new art project, testing a new recipe for my blog, practicing my design skills, or deep in thought coordinating a new proposal - it’s a whirlwind, and I love every moment of it.
While my roots trace back to the scenic landscapes of BC, this little Alberta town has truly become home. It's where the sound of my two girls' laughter fills the air, and where our elderly Pomeranian guards our home from song birds and leaves falling from trees. It’s a far cry from the bustling streets of Vancouver, but as life would have it, I’m right where I need to be.
I have focused a lot on personal growth over the years, but if there's one thing that remains unchanged, it's my insatiable curiosity. So, while I have my hands full with my current endeavors, don’t be surprised if you find me picking up a new skill or exploring a fresh passion soon.
My professional path has been diverse, beginning in the insurance industry, which laid the groundwork for my analytical and organizational skills. I've always gravitated to roles that blend technical precision with creative innovation. Transitioning from CAD technology, where I excelled in detailed design work, to embracing the challenges of digital marketing and web development, has been a journey of continuous learning and adaptation. Now as a Marketing Coordinator, I leverage my comprehensive skill set in SEO, proposal writing, and social media strategy.
My academic pursuits reflect a journey through various disciplines that enhance my professional versatility. At BC Institute of Technology, I graduated with distinction from the Computer Aided Design Technology program. Further enriching my expertise, I specialized in Search Engine Optimization, in an online course by University of California, Davis, via the Coursera platform. I am currently pursuing a specialization certificate in Graphic Design from California Institute of the Arts via the Coursera platform. Complementing these technical and creative endeavors, I'm also broadening my communicative abilities by auditing a course on Rhetoric: The Art of Persuasive Writing and Public Speaking.
