Profile
Float flying appeals to her for reasons she can't always put into words. Every lake and harbour is different, and you have to read the environment, stay on top of conditions, and think through each approach. She grew up outdoors and has always loved being near the water. Taking off and landing on it is something she hasn't found anywhere else.
She's calm when things get hard, and she doesn't quit. Balancing multi-engine training with a full-time job and a four-year degree meant a lot of tough days, and showing up anyway. She's not in it to rack up hours and move on. She wants to actually fly different planes and get good at them before she heads to an airline.
- Bachelor of Management and Organisational Studies graduate, Commercial Aviation Management, Western University, 2025. Four years learning the business and operations side of aviation, not just the flying part.
- Flight Dispatcher and Lead Ramp Agent at Diamond Flight Centre. She knows how the ground side works before the wheels are up.
- Naval Combat Information Operator, Royal Canadian Navy Reserve. Deployed on Operation Latitude.
- Search and rescue volunteer, CASARA and PEP Air.
- Current Red Cross first aid certification. Survival skills training through the Navy and CASARA.
"My dad used to fly me into a remote fishing lodge in Saskatchewan. That's where it all started."
