** "I began volunteering with BE in Summer 2019, after several years of following and taking interest in the organization. An avid recreational cyclist myself, I use my bike in the summer to commute to the hospital where I work as a Registered Nurse. An advocate for safety, community outreach, and promotion of preventative health, I see organizations such as Bike Edmonton as amazing support resources with similar goals in mind - and much more! Although I do not have any formal experience on Not for Profit boards, I attend my condo AGM regularly, I sit as an executive member on my unions Local board, and I sit on several boards as a Clinical Nurse Educator for joint workplace decision making."
