As part of our New to Dal 2025 celebrations, we are excited to introduce you to some of the friendly faces you’ll encounter on campus. These are the people who help make our community vibrant, welcoming, and ready to support you on your journey at the Faculty of Agriculture.

Where are you from? Hammonds Plains, NS

What do you do at Dal? I hold a few positions on campus.  I am the Coordinator/Advisor of the Truro Start program (full-time), Don of Chapman House (part-time), Line Dancing Instructor every Thursday night at the Langille Athletic Centre.

What is your favorite part about working at the AC? I get the opportunity to work with some amazing colleagues.  I also love meeting new students and watching them succeed.

What is one piece of advice you would give students? Your academic path may change, and that's ok! Connecting with your academic advisor early will help you navigate your road to success. 

What do you like to do in your spare time? When I'm not working you will most likely find me at the barn hanging out with my horse, Dollar. He's the best!
