Over the last 14 years, I have worked as a Pre-Employment Advisor at Adult Language and Learning . In this position I have assisted Newcomers to Chatham Kent with their integration into the Local Canadian Labour Market. My duties have included facilitating workshops focusing on workplace culture, networking, soft skills improvement, interviewing and cover letters/resume development, along with helping clients one on one to reach their employment goals.

Another aspect of my current position is developing and delivering presentations, keynote addresses and training on the topic of Intercultural Competency. With pride I can say I have been doing this over the last 12 years and I have addressed over 3000+ individuals across Southwestern Ontario.

I am a true believer in lifelong learning and in 2022, I recertified my Certification as a Personality Dimension Trainer, in 2012 I achieved Toastmaster accreditation and 2013 received Certification as an Intercultural Competency Specialist.

I consider myself an "Autodidact" and an all-around computer nerd with a love for social media. I believe that knowing the dangers and benefits of this medium is imperative in the process of job searching and personal branding.

In 2020 I earned 2 online certifications

in Social Media Management, and since then I have developed and delivered training on Virtual Skill Building and Online Personal Branding. I am versed in training in person and via online webinars. In June 2015 I completed an 1 week Facilitation Certification Course at Humber College to better hone in on my desire to produce quality training.

I have been described as a dynamic, engaging and entertaining presenter of information. My goal is to facilitate stimulating and informative presentations, workshops and online webinars.
