I am someone who truly believes that community matters. I have always been passionate about supporting local initiatives, building meaningful connections, and finding ways to give back to the people and places around me. For me, being part of a community means more than simply living in it. It means showing up, getting involved, and helping create a place where everyone feels they belong.

Recently, I purchased my first home in Stratford. Putting down roots here is an exciting milestone, but it also represents something much deeper. Stratford is now the place I proudly call home, and I am committed to investing my time, energy, and heart into helping our community grow and thrive.

Professionally, I work for a digital forensics company, where I am fortunate to be part of a team dedicated to protecting people and organizations in an increasingly digital world. Through my work, I have seen firsthand the importance of safeguarding vulnerable populations, especially children. I believe that when we create safe, supportive environments, young people are given the opportunity to learn, grow, and reach their full potential.

That same sense of responsibility, compassion, and service is what motivates my interest in serving our Catholic school community. Every child deserves to feel safe, valued, supported, and included. Every family deserves to know that their child is part of a community that cares deeply about their success and well-being.

As someone who was educated in the Catholic school system, I learned that Catholic education is about far more than academics. It is about faith, community, service, and belonging. It is about fostering strong connections between students, families, educators, parishes, and the communities we call home.

As a trustee, I would work to strengthen those connections and help ensure that our schools continue to be places where every student feels known, supported, valued, and encouraged to become the very best version of themselves. I want to be a voice for our families, a champion for our students, and a dedicated advocate for the community that has already given me so much.
