Carly says:
I love making space for young people to bring meaning to their experiences - be they social, educational or creative. I'm a lifelong learner and a parent.
I completed a Bachelor's of Child and Youth Care, with early childhood education specialization from the University of Victoria. Learning about humans is my favourite.
