My Stories
I love stories. Since childhood, reading, writing, and hearing other people’s stories have been my greatest pleasures.
I turned this into a career by studying journalism and working in PR, where for the past two + decades I have helped clients to tell their stories and build a voice in cluttered media and digital landscapes.
There are so many untold stories and voices across Greater Vancouver that we do not get to hear, including my own stories. On this page, my goal is to give voice to these tales— to bring connection through understanding where someone is from and what their journey has been like. I will also share my own stories and passion for writing. It is a privilege to hear someone’s story and I hope that you enjoy reading about the diverse BC residents that make up our community. I also hope that you enjoy reading pieces of my life, whatever it may bring to the page.
