Experience

    • Teacher-Librarian

    • Academic Counselor and Teacher-Librarian
      • Sep 2018 - Present

      Navigating course selections, selecting post-secondary options and applying for scholarships are challenging for students. In my role, I guide students through this important process while directing them to helpful resources. In addition, I planned and co-led a two week cross-cultural experience to Asia for grade eleven students. In the Learning Commons (Library), I seek to create a space where students and teachers are empowered to learn, to innovate and to connect.
