I’m 31 years old, and originally from Vancouver, BC. I moved to Montreal for university when I was 19 and it’s been home ever since. I was drawn to the city because of its vibrant music scene, which I quickly became a part of playing in many bands throughout my 20’s. For work I always wanted to do something health and/or environment related. After graduating from Concordia, I worked at a health food co-op for 6 years. Working in a space like that I became very passionate about food sovereignty and food access, which inspired me to take year long urban agriculture course through Concordia. My plan after that was to receive a DEC in arboriculture, but my plans were about to change when my dad got a 4th prostate cancer stage diagnosis. I spent the next year focussing on getting my drivers license so I could drive out to BC with my dog Pinky, and look after him. I lived with him in a rental where I helped with meals and day to day tasks, errands, and doctors appointments. He passed away 9 months later and it’s been a little hard getting my life back on track to where it was before his diagnosis. Since then, I worked on an organic vegetable farm for one and a half seasons, as well as at Canada post as a letter carrier for 6 months. However working labour intensive full time jobs has been a little taxing as I have had little time to deal with my grief. I am a hard worker and I love working with people, but I am looking for something part time. If you have any other questions please feel free to ask!

I have no formal training but I cared for both my parents during years of cancer until they passed (my mom when I was 18, and my dad when I was 29). I am a very compassionate person, and would love to be of service to anyone currently in need.
