I am an elementary PE specialist and regional trainer for Action Schools BC in Squamish BC. I enjoy hiking, telemark skiing, and mountain biking with my family. I have spearheaded a successful elementary Mountain Bike Series in SD #48, Pedal to the Metal, which has over 125 participants in grades 3-7.
In 2011-2013, I attended VIU and completed a diploma in Innovative Educational Leadership and went on to complete a Master of Education in Leadership. While writing my thesis, “Connections through Physical Literacy: Teaching Fundamental Movement Skills to Early Primary Students with Cross-Age Tutors,” and handbook, I was fortunate enough to be mentored by Dr. Roy Shephard (Trois Riviere study). My handbook is being revised and will hopefully become an Action Schools BC resource.
