Solidarity is our strength.
With this principle at the forefront, I am confident in my ability to excel in the position of 1st Vice President and fulfill its responsibilities to the fullest.
With this principle at the forefront, I am confident in my ability to excel in the position of 1st Vice President and fulfill its responsibilities to the fullest.
Bringing a fresh perspective to our union, I have spearheaded changes throughout all my previous roles. Within my portfolio as the 2nd Vice President, I led the Surrey delegation to the BCTF AGM, revitalizing our approach with updated venues, schedules, and communication strategies. Whether it's modernizing scholarship applications to online platforms, offering a diverse range of workshops to staff representatives, or facilitating a transition to more direct and private communications, I've been proactive every step of the way.
I plan to bring the same level of dedication and innovation to the portfolio of the 1st Vice President, driving meaningful change within our union. |
Having previously served as Communications Coordinator and receiving provincial recognition for my work, I am eager to take on the responsibility of managing our association's communications. Drawing on my experience as a member of over 20 committees throughout my union career, I understand the importance of fostering strong relationships and member engagement. As past Chair of the STA Status of Women Committee, I successfully expanded our membership and organized numerous workshops and events. Through my experience and dedication, I am prepared to diligently oversee the preparation of agendas and minutes for Executive Committee and General Meetings, as well as the organization of New Teachers’ Conferences.

Since embracing the call to leadership at the BCTF Women's Institute in 2018, I have devoted myself to representing our members at various decision-making bodies and amplifying their voices on critical issues such as increasing our salary and prep times, extra supports in the classrooms, transparency with our members in decisions that are made, and various equity issues. By fostering a culture of inclusivity and transparency, I aim to ensure that every member's voice is heard and valued. Looking ahead, I recognize that the upcoming bargaining year will be especially crucial for our union.
Solidarity is our strength, and as a leader who listens to the membership, I am committed to advocating for your priorities and ensuring that your voices are heard at the bargaining table. |
My assets are my strong work ethic, organizational prowess, proficiency in technology, creative problem-solving skills, and ability to build genuine connections with people. These qualities have empowered me to effectively advocate for our members and drive positive change within our union. It would be a privilege to continue serving as your 1st Vice President and collaborating with you to shape a brighter future for our union.
Solidarity is our strength, and together, we will achieve great things for Surrey teachers. |
