I enjoy matching students with host families to create opportunities for amazing lifelong international relationships and memorable experiences.I counsel and coach students through many challenges during their transition to living in Canada and adjustments to Canadian culture.I give lots of hugs :)  (but only if the student wants one)
I listen and I care, I assist with payments, immigration, cultural adjustments, host family issues and concerns, whatever the student may need to help them while they are in Canada.

I am the mother of 2 boys. I enjoy laughing, going to the beach, riding motorcycles, travelling, culture, art, food, shoes and boots, reading, skiing and ice-fishing.

I love it when my host families tell me they still keep in contact with their student from 2 or 3 or 10 years ago. I enjoy hearing about student experiences while they are in Canada. I am happy when a student says “Thank you for giving me the best host family!”
