About Me
I've been living in Calgary for the past 11 years, and during this time, my passion has been to empower and support the newcomer community. Having experienced the challenges of settling into a new city myself, I understand how important it is to have a strong support system. That’s why I’ve dedicated myself to helping newcomers navigate their new environment, access essential resources, and feel a true sense of belonging in Calgary. Whether it’s through mentorship, or simply lending a listening ear, I’m committed to making a positive impact and helping others build a strong foundation for their future here. I’d like to personally welcome and greet everyone joining us to ensure you feel comfortable.

Please feel free to message me on Meetup if you have any questions for me.
