What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to utilize my analytical skills and passion for health, while fostering collaboration and growth within a supportive team environment.

I am a dedicated professional with a Bachelor of Kinesiology from the University of Winnipeg, where I honed my skills in fitness program design and assessment of neurological and musculoskeletal systems. My experience as a Compliance Services Officer at the Canada Revenue Agency has equipped me with a keen eye for detail and a strong ability to investigate and process benefit claims effectively. I thrive in collaborative environments, working alongside various stakeholders to ensure the integrity of benefit requests and taxpayer accounts.

Prior to my current role, I served as a Case Investigator at Statistics Canada, where I communicated vital COVID-19 guidelines and collected essential data to support public health initiatives. My background as a Fitness Trainer and Assistant Manager at Planet Fitness further solidified my commitment to helping individuals achieve their health and wellness goals through personalized training programs and group instruction. I am passionate about leveraging my diverse skill set to contribute positively to any organization.
