When I joined Toastmasters in 2010, I was a Charter member of a corporate club. I had never heard of Toastmasters before, and I while I didn’t think that I needed to improve my communication skills, I thought that I would be able convince my husband Gary to join if I did.
Since joining Toastmasters I have served in most club officer roles, including being President of two clubs in the same year! My favorite role is Vice President of Education, because introducing new members to the education system and assisting them as they grow and flourish is very rewarding.
At the district level, I have served as a Pathways Guide, Area Director, and Division Director. Each role has challenged me and stretched me, and I have grown personally and professionally because of it. My mantra is “if it doesn’t challenge you, it doesn’t change you”.
I am a health and fitness enthusiast who holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Exercise Science & Health Promotion. I’m employed as a Fitness Director in a senior community, and my greatest joy is working with someone and seeing them move from a state of frailty and illness to health and wellness.
In my spare time I enjoy traveling, doing jigsaw puzzles, and listening to audiobooks.

My passion is developing people and helping them reach their potential. In my Toastmasters club, I see future leaders at every stage of growth—some need stronger public speaking skills, others need organizational and leadership development, and many simply need encouragement and support.
I am also passionate about organizational excellence. I am continually looking for ways to improve meetings, training, and member experiences by making the best use of available resources. I believe my commitment to people development and continuous improvement would allow me to add value as either a club officer or a director within the organization.
Having served as Vice President Membership, Vice President Education, President, and Division F Administrator, I have experienced firsthand the impact of Toastmasters leadership and service. I chose to serve as Area Director to continue supporting club leaders, supporting leadership development within clubs, and continuing to grow alongside others. My vision is to encourage a culture of networking, mentoring, and collaboration among clubs in Area 61 to strengthen the Area. In alignment with Vision D47: Tune In – Envision, Empower, Exemplify, I am committed to listening to club leaders, providing available resources, encouraging excellence in educational goals, supporting clubs in strengthening retention, pursuing growth opportunities, and exemplifying Toastmasters core values as we work toward excellence and distinguished success.
