In the midst of my fulfilling role at the Ottawa Community Foundation, I consciously chose to immerse myself in the world of teaching, coaching, and mentoring. Many wonder why I gravitated towards this path. For me, the allure lies in the transformative journey of guiding young individuals, facilitating their voyage from curiosity to discovery. It’s this profound connection with the students at Lambton College that has remarkably enriched my life.

- Collective Learning: Our journey has transcended traditional education, fostering an environment where life’s invaluable lessons are exchanged, enriching our collective experience.
- Growth Accelerator: I take immense pride in playing a pivotal role in my students’ developmental journey, aiding them in unlocking their latent potential at an early juncture in their lives.
The Experience: The interactions with my students have been enlightening, with their resilience and fresh perspectives continually inspiring me. Every challenge we’ve encountered together has served as a foundation for enhanced learning experiences and fortified mentor-student connections. The pinnacle of this journey is witnessing students apply their knowledge, actively contributing to the betterment of our community, affirming the invaluable impact of education.
Why It Matters: My commitment to teaching transcends the conventional objectives of education. It’s about igniting the spark of curiosity and ambition in the minds of the next generation, molding them into the leaders, innovators, and conscientious citizens of tomorrow. I’m driven by the vision of them harnessing their unique talents to make a meaningful difference in the world.
