About Me
I am from Courtice, ON and recently graduated from the University of Guelph. I love travelling, renovating/re-purposing, hiking, canoeing, peanut butter, and occasionally all the above at the same time. I grew up working on a horse farm and quickly learned to appreciate hard work days and being outside. Shortly after starting university I began looking for a job to help me pay tuition, and I came across tree planting. Tree planting is so hard that you must look within, find your push, find your intensity, and show up with it every day no matter what. This made me realize what I can achieve and how planting can positively influence my life in many ways. |
Past Adventures
Canoe trip Guiding in Algonquin Park
Backpacking Asia
Camping around Scotland
Road-Tripping Canada
Having seven roommates for three years in University with one bathroom
Experience
This season will be my 4th with Summit. It may be my first running a crew but I have worked as a rookie trainer, as a checker and a driver. I am prepared for the role as this was a super valuable experience where I got to work closely with the experienced foreman to learn more about the responsibilities of the job.
