  • I've spent the last 18 months working and travelling around Canada. During this time I have gained experiences in multiple different roles and industries; from ski lift operations, to campground management and performing maintenance on boats and jet skis.
  • Seasonal work has been incredibly enriching, whilst also encouraging me to adapt to new environments and learn job roles that I previously had little to no experience in.
  • I'm excited to pull from these adventures and take what I've learned into a more permanent role.
