One of the most fulfilling things I can do with my career is to directly have an impact on my community, my province, and my country in the public sector. I'm proud to have worked with the City of Ottawa's transit services, several political campaigns in both volunteer and paid capacities, and as an outreach specialist with Canada's New Democratic Party (NDP).

I've also volunteered extensively with community advocacy group Horizon Ottawa as it pushes for public policy to help the most vulnerable among us.
