Member Spotlight
 

I am the executive director for the Association of Local Public Health Agencies (alPHa). The association provides leadership to Ontario’s public health agencies. In this role, I work closely with board of health members, medical and associate medical officers of health, and senior public health managers, government representatives and key stakeholders to advocate for healthy public policy and an effective and efficient local public health system.

I joined CSAE and became a CAE as part of a lifelong commitment to learning and to have access to resources and education to help me to continue to succeed as an association leader. I am currently volunteering with CSAE to help create the new Establish Direction training module for the CAE® certification program. Connect with me on LinkedIn.
