I lived in a female-only residence here and some great memories happened at the good ol' Aberdeen. I proudly wore my black band, prior to caps being cast aside in the early eighties. My mother and my youngest sister are also alum.

MFA Creative Nonfiction
University of Kings College at Dalhousie University
I just can't get enough of school. I wanted to be a better writer and write for the general public in a more accessible manner than most academics do. When I saw this low-residency MFA program at Kings I knew it was exactly what I was looking for!
Through my well funded research program at the University of Alberta I published as an author or co-author in high impact scholarly journals such as Medical Decision Making, Social Care in the Community, International Journal of Nursing Studies, and Advances in Nursing Science to name a few.
More enjoyment comes from community engagement,

As a nurse I spent my career in community and home care. I have come to see the first hand value of a strong home care system to support family caregivers–the main caregivers when loved ones need care. I have had a rich nursing career and am blessed to have loved all of my experiences including practice, administration, nursing entrepreneurship, teaching, and research.
An inherent leader and entrepreneur, I get my greatest joy from helping others learn new things, apply new skills, and achieve their goals. I advocate for better home care and more support for family caregivers.
Currently, I am a volunteer board member with Caregivers Alberta and the Writers Guild of Alberta. I am on the editorial board of Yoga Bridge, a quarterly publication by the Yoga Association of Alberta.
I am a peer reviewer for several scholarly journals related to my areas of expertise.
