A Little About Me: I was born and raised in Red Deer, and am the oldest of five children. I live in Lacombe with my boyfriend Mark and our two dogs and two cats. I spend a great deal of Mark and I visiting his hometime golfing, playing soccer and Vancouver Island s no w bo a rd i ng. As well, I enjoy playing the pi- Quirks About Me: ano, flute and I collected Beanie Babies as a saxophone. Durchild ing the summer, I love Mark and I cheese pizza spend time in I am a very our back yard picky eater; barbequing with I don't like our friends, and any “yucky” things such as onduring the winter we watch a lot ions, cooked peas, beans, etc. of hockey! Mark is from Vancouver I have never had any Island so we love the Vancouver “favourites”; I cant pick a faCanucks! When we actually find vourite colour, number, actor/ time, Mark and I like to start new actress, movie, band, etc. projects on our house; currently, I am an analyzer; I assess we are working on updating our things deeply. I hate scary movies bathrooms! 1
A Peek Into My Daily Life: I am currently a full-time student at Red Deer College in the Bachelor of Education Secondary program. I play soccer for the RDC Rec Royals and hope to stay in Red Deer for one more year to play soccer with this team again! After next year, I will be transferring to University of Alberta in Edmonton. School takes up most of my time, but when I’m not playing soccer or participating in class, I babysit for various families or work at Parkland C.L. A.S.S. I love to babysit because I can teach the kids new things and help them experience new aspects of the world. Parkland C.L.A.S.S. is very similar, except I am working in a children’s group home with kids that have various disabilities such as FASD, autism, schizophrenia, etc. They are both very rewarding jobs and I feel that with my training and experience, they will help me become a better teacher. 2
My Vocation: When it came to picking a career path, I wanted to try everything; hairdresser, paramedic, real estate agent, etc. But when putting a lot of thought and consideration into a career as a long term commitment, I knew that being a teacher was my vocation. I love being around kids; helping them learn and accomplish their own goals gives me a sense of my own accomplishment.
