Home is where the heart is.
“Public health is my home. Prince Township is my home. Family gathered around a table on my grandparents’ farm is home.
I waited patiently for an opportunity to return home to serve the community I grew up in and raise my family on the fields of my childhood. To find myself working for population health, building a dream home on the land of my ancestors, surrounded daily by the love and support of family, is the stuff of my imagination come true.
The people and work of Algoma Public Health are home, and I am so grateful to work alongside such a dedicated team."
