Since moving to Newmarket I immediately began volunteering in the community and working hard to support the local charities and events. I have volunteered with the Terry Fox Run and am now a proud 40-year Ambassador for the event. Additionally, I volunteer for the Women’s Centre of York Region, Help-Portrait, Newmarket Chamber of Commerce, Clearmeadow school council since 2007, Belinda’s place in 2012, the Run for Southlake, and more!
My proudest moment was when my Ward 6 neighbours choose me to represent them on Newmarket Council in 2014. When I was elected I promised to instill community, charity, public service and bring results to Ward 6. By living out the motto lead by example, I believe through the volunteer roles I continue to hold as well as the vast community involvement initiatives, we have together, accomplished bringing results and these values to the forefront in our community.
Since first elected I have worked with the residents of Ward 6 to identify our biggest community concerns, needs, and wants. Together we were able to bring Newmarket’s first fully accessible splash pad, Ward 6 first volunteer community ice rink, and create a vibrant, safe community space that will also protect our environment and preserve the rich history, in Mulock farm. These are just 3 of the major accomplishments we have achieved together. To see more results both completed and coming soon to a neighborhood near you, visit the results map.
I am honoured to be elected by the residents in Ward 6 for the past 7 years and am excited to continue to work together for the residents and the community as a whole.

My family and I have lived in Newmarket since 1996 and are proud to call Newmarket our home.
