Community. Transparency. Commitment!

Welcome to your candidate for Ward 4, Lakeland Ridges Municipal Council! I was elected during the April 2025 bi-election and have decided to re-offer in the upcoming May, for a four year term.

I'm dedicated to serving you with integrity and commitment. I've devoted time to learn the ins and outs of being a councillor, ensuring I’m well-informed to make decisions that benefit our community.

Our community deserves nothing less than exceptional representation, and it is the responsibility of the municipal council to remain fully committed to upholding that standard in all decisions and actions. With your vote, I can continue advocating for governance, development, sustainability, and inclusivity.

Though I grew up in Woodstock, I had roots in Lakeland Ridges and decided to make it my home at retirement. While most of my working career was in Nova Scotia, holidays and summer vacations were spent in NB. I'm goal orientated and love learning new things. I started playing the guitar in grade five and continue to play today. I also enjoy playing the banjo and am a member of the Woodstock Ukers where I lead a group one session a month. I was an avid golfer and have completed two full marathons plus numerous half and shorter running events. However the sneakers and clubs have retired and now I stay fit by walking the dogs, cycling and paddling. I design and manage websites for various not for profit organizations. I'm an avid photographer and am currently working on a joint project with a local artist.

Needless to say, I keep busy!

Upon completing high school, I enrolled at Mount Allison University, initially focusing on Canadian Studies before transitioning to business due to my affinity for numbers. I earned my BBA from Mount Saint Vincent University. My professional journey began at BMO Bank of Montreal, where I took on roles in people management such as a Branch Manager, Corporate Audit, and Regional Sales Manager with BMOIVL, before moving to TD Wealth. I achieved my CFP designation while working in Financial and Portfolio Planning and Management. I was licensed under the Nova Scotia and Canadian Securities Commissions and CFP (Certified Financial Planning Standards Council). Continuing education was an industry requirement.

Since retirement I have taken Distance Learning Education as follows:

Climate Change and How to Communicate -- Vancouver Island University
Lake Ecology -- Michigan State University
Currently registered "Protecting NB Homes from Flooding and Erosion"

Since being elected to Council in April 2025, I have taken advantage of learning 'how' to be an effective councillor. Such as the following!

Councillor Training UMNB in June and on-line through Local Reform
UMNB Conference in October
UMNB 'Get Ready 2026' Practical Guide for Municipal Elections -- Councillor Roles, Expectations and Guidelines
FCM Federation Of Canadian Municipalities Info Training
ICS100
Flag Course
Fire Fighting Level 1. I have completed A,B & C blocks with D and E left. This also included a section with DNR and Forest Fire Fighting.

I also volunteer with the New Brunswick Alliance of Lake Associations where I have participated in the following sessions in the past six months:

Round Table on Aquatic Invasive Species
Focus Group participation on Clean Water Act DELG NB -- WAWA reviews
NB Flood and Climate Change session and courses.

Engaging in volunteer work is not only enjoyable, but it also offers incredibly fulfilling experiences. I am truly moved by the kindness of our community! My current activities...

Auxiliary of Canterbury Fire Department Inc.
SLCOA Inc.
New Brunswick Alliance of Lake Associations Inc.
Woodstock Ukers -- Senior Home Visitations
Halifax Kennel Club -- Website Development
Participated in the annual Count For Homelessness in Halifax

Current Council Activities!

Committee Participation and Union Municipalities of New Brunswick

I sit on the Environment and Waste Committee. We reviewed and presented to Council the contracts concerning Waste Management and environmental topics. All meetings were open to the public.
I Chaired the Finance Committee and worked directly under the guidance our CAO, Treasurer and Mayor in preparing the 2026 Budget. The budget was prepared, submitted and approved accordingly.

As of November 2025, I sit on the Health Committee of UMNB with other representatives from within New Brunswick Municipalities.
We advocate on behalf of the Municipalities, services such as Ambulance New Brunswick, meetings with the Minister of Health etc. This has been a very rewarding and informative committee.
