Message

At Good Soil Theatre, I organized productions in churches and community centers across Canada and arranged accommodations for cast and crew. I also drove an acting troupe while promoting the charity organization.

At Rogers Video, I supervised Customer Service Representatives, recruited and trained staff, and developed sales incentives. These competitions helped the store achieve top star status in the zone.

My work has also included supporting participants in supportive housing, writing copy for brochures and websites, and performing in TV shows and films. I’ve worked in management positions across film, theatre, and retail.
