In front of the new branch of the Spruce Grove Public Library in May. A great day for our community and advocacy efforts over several years.
Hey Everybody! Welcome to my campaign to represent Spruce Grove (Ward 5) as School Board Trustee for Parkland School Division No. 70.
A few things about myself:
Our family choose Spruce Grove in 2015, with my wife Samantha and my two kids age 11 and 13 attending Prescott Learning Centre. I am passionate about learning and seeking challenges. I have a vision that our public schools succeed by developing and supporting well rounded, resilient students and attracting great families to our community. If you want your community to thrive, your school must lead the way.
I am the current Chairperson of the Spruce Grove Public Library Board and have served that organization for 9+ years. I serve because I value literacy and lifelong learning. I am proud of the advocacy work that lead to opening of a new branch of the Spruce Grove Public Library within Heavy Metal Place. My experience with governance and advocacy will make sure I can be as ready as possible on day one.
I served a member of the Greater Parkland Regional Chamber’s Emerging Leaders Committee.
I have coached with Parkland Basketball the last 4 seasons.
At Prescott Learning Centre, it has been my pleasure over the years to learn from the School Council including leading the safe neighbourhood transportation communication, and coaching junior boys basketball.
For the last 10+ years I have been the General Manager of Community Futures Capital Region, a not for profit in our community that helps small businesses in Parkland Region to start and grow. We also run programs such as the Young Entrepreneur Training Initiative (YETI) and Lemonade Day in Spruce Grove. Delivering programs that support students in our community is very rewarding. My experience managing an organization will help to identify value and opportunities for PSD No. 70 and enhance positive experiences.
There is much that we can do! The next School Board will have to be ambitious and engaged with our community in order to succeed. Click here to see what I think we need to focus on.
Spruce Grove has grown. Our family is proud to grow with it.
