Although she loved going to school, it was always a treat when the yellow school bus did not come due to the frigid temperatures.
Raised on a farm, she became adept at using all the tools in her father’s garage and learned to sew at her mother’s knee. Her crowning achievement in that department was a double layer parka complete with a fur-trimmed hood.
She earned her Bachelor of Education degree as an elementary school teacher from the University of Alberta. A year later, she added an Early Childhood Services Diploma so she could teach at the Kindergarten level.
She currently lives in Edmonton with her husband and some very laid-back pets: a Golden Doodle, a Golden Lab and a golden cat. Her passion is growing flowers and spending time outdoors.ver menos
