I spent four years on Collingwood’s Police Services Board (2014-2018) followed by another four years on the Committee of Adjustment (2018-2022). I was also a member of our town’s Poet Laureate Selection committee and have served as an official “fence viewer”. I ran unsuccessfully for council in 2018 and again in 2022. I have been a Chartered Mediator for over 23 years and work with individuals, organizations, and families in conflict. I still practice and specialize in family estate facilitation. I am married with two grown daughters and a noisy dog.
