A proud Canadian, I was born and raised on the Canadian Prairies, where I attended post secondary education at the desirable University of Winnipeg, graduating with a B. A., majoring in Politics.

In 2001, soon after graduation while pursuing my political career I worked as an Immigration Assistant for 5 years to a Former Member of Parliament of the House of Commons. Then in 2005, I was transferred to Ottawa, Ontario and held the position of Special Assistant to the Western Region for the Former Minister of Citizenship & Immigration. My time in this position was strictly Immigration pertaining to Western Canada.

I was also a part of the Fort Gary Community Network. An Immigration Network in Winnipeg South, Manitoba designated in dealing with settlement programs and assistance within the community.

I graduated from Humber College obtaining my Canadian Immigration Practitioner Certificate in 2007. I am also an active and proud member of the Canadian Society of Immigration Consultants. A regulatory body that overseas and regulates the conduct and ethics of Immigration consultants.
