COACHING

One of the things I really enjoy doing outside of my work is photography. It has taught me how to view things differently and allowed me to appreciate the candid beauty and uniqueness of everyday mundane activities. I love observing little things around me like colours and reflections and capturing these from my perspective. Photography gives me the ability to show the world my perspective on how mundane things can look exceptional when we are able to capture those candid moments.

Basketball is one of my favourite sports, so I decided over 10 years ago that I wanted to become a volunteer coach for my daughter’s local team when I didn’t see enough female representation. From there, it led to becoming an assistant coach and then a head coach for the same program in Etobicoke. For the last three years, I’ve managed three prep basketball teams, both women’s and men’s where I’ve been given the nickname “the glue”. The teams are based out of at Markham’s J. Addison School and are one of the highest ranked basketball programs in Ontario and are part of the Ontario Scholastic Basketball Association. The entire coaching staff is like family to me, which is why I love what I do as they instill the same values with their student athletes as I do with my family.
