I love coming to work each day and spending time with all of our members! It’s important to me that everyone feels welcomed, included, and has a chance to have some fun. My goal is that by the end of the day, we’ve shared plenty of laughs, made some great memories, and had a genuinely good time together.

I started at Sunrise as a placement student and never left! What began as a placement quickly became a career I truly love. As the Community Supervisor, I’m passionate about supporting my team, connecting with our members, and creating a community where everyone feels valued. I’m lucky to say that work has always been one of my favourite parts of the day, and never really feels like work.
