About Me

At birth I was diagnosed with Spina Bifida and a Strawberry Birthmark, neither of which slowed me down. But at the age of sixteen I was walking down a flight of stairs when I heard a loud snap. It took a year and a half to be diagnosed with Teathered Spinal Cord. At the time I was the oldest known case in Canada so the doctors told me they had no idea what to expect. Today I struggle with Chronic Pain and Parapalegia. Even though I have had to give up on most my plans for the futur I still have hope that I will be able to adjust my goals and find a futur that will make me happy.

Hobbies and Interests

 Theatre Production, Direction, Acting, Stage Makeup, Music, Arts Advertising & Relations, Special Event Production, Animal Rescue, Jewelry Making and most of all People Watching.

  I love anything that lets me study the human mind. Whether it's watching a play or film to see how people react in strange situations or just watching people walk by at the mall. I think every moment we are on this earth is a learning oppertunity if only we open our eyes and mind to study the people around us.
