Making a positive difference in students’ lives

"I have walked alongside thousands of youth as they decide what is next for them in their education and career. There is nothing better than seeing a students eyes light up when they discover a career that feels like the right fit. Through the BEP we help students during this discovery phase and teach them foundational skills that will help throughout their career journey. I look forward connecting with youth and building up creative confidence!"

"My job is very rewarding as I get to inspire young people and help them discover career possibilities. I get to connect caring educators with our incredible volunteer speakers who, by sharing their career stories, are making a positive impact. Together, I know that we are making a difference in the lives of local youth by exposing them to new ideas, encouraging them to embrace their talents and make better informed decisions about their future. I can’t think of a better way to spend my days sharing my passion for helping others and sharing lessons learned on my own winding career path. As a mother of 3 youth, I can totally relate to the anxiety youth face as they start navigating their futures."

"I strongly believe that all my experiences have led me to working for the BEP. From working with youth in remote northern communities, to at-risk youth in urban areas, my passion has always been helping youth see their potential and find their purpose. I love working through creative solutions, empowering youth to believe in their dreams, and am thrilled that I get the privilege of amplifying their stories across the region and beyond!"

Empowering the next generation of innovators requires dedication, creativity, and a commitment to inclusive growth. At the BEP, I am passionate about guiding youth to explore their potential and drive impactful change in their communities.

"As a student I remember how overwhelming it can feel to determine a career path. Through the BEP I am excited to help ease that feeling and provide youth with various opportunities to explore the options available to them. I have a passion for community building and look forward to connecting youth to all the amazing stories and experiences our community has to share."
