Career Story
My career began in the mountains of Lake Louise, AB working in Food & Beverage and supporting inventory control and Point of Sale systems. Life took a dramatic turn when my husband died and I became a widow and solo parent to 2 young children.
In time, I turned my tragedy into my passion and I now provide bereavement care at both a funeral home and within the organization I founded – The Hummingbird Centre for Hope.
