English & Social Studies

I grew up in Ottawa, Ontario and come from a big family! I was fortunate enough to complete my undergraduate degree at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia while playing on the varsity women's basketball team. I then decided to pursue my passion for teaching at St. Francis Xavier University, where I completed my Bachelor of Education degree. 

Outside of the classroom, I love spending time with friends and family, whether that's travelling, eating or watching TV! I also enjoy competition, including sports, card games or video games. My happy place is my family cottage in Prince Edward Island. 

I really look forward to building relationships with my students and colleagues.
I believe that every student has a right to be heard and seen within their learning environment, allowing them to reach their full potential and have a positive school experience.

I am thrilled to be a part of the Marauder family this year!

Division Notice

ATA Strike Commencing on Monday; School Closures Starting Oct 6th

As a result of the Alberta Teachers Association (ATA) rejecting a proposed deal from the Teachers’ Employer Bargaining Association (TEBA), all FMPSD schools will be closed to students starting Monday, October 6, 2025, unless a new agreement is reached or strike action is otherwise averted. Additionally, all yellow school bus routes will be suspended for the duration of the strike.

In light of the ongoing strike, all extracurricular activities, including sports, clubs, and after-school programs, will be temporarily suspended.

As there is no definitive end date for the strike, FMPSD is unable to provide a timeline for when normal operations will resume. We will continue to provide timely updates as we receive them from the Ministry of Education and Child Care.
