For the past four years, I’ve had the privilege of serving as a TDSB Trustee. I’ve listened to parents, helped families when they’ve struggled to get the support they need, and made sure our communities are heard when decisions are made.
As a local mom with two kids in TDSB schools and longtime public education advocate, my family and I have called this part of Toronto home for many years. I’m excited to be seeking re-election in the new TDSB Ward 3, bringing together Parkdale–High Park and Davenport.
I’m running because I believe something very simple: every child deserves an excellent public education.
That means making sure our schools have the resources and support every student needs to reach their full potential.
I’ll continue to push the province to address the chronic underfunding of public education and fight for the schools our children deserve!
My priorities for the next term are:
Equity & Human Rights
Removing barriers, directing resources where they’re needed most, and holding the Board accountable.
Literacy & Numeracy
Prioritizing proven approaches, directing available resources effectively, and tracking what works.
Mental Health & Well-Being
Improving access to supports so students feel safe, connected and ready to learn.
Track Record
I’ve worked with students, families and communities to bring their priorities to the Board and deliver meaningful change.
