Career Story

High-school: I actually decided to go to university midway through Grade 12 (but I could only go to college because of the courses I took). I asked my guidance counselor - if there is a way - and we made a plan: summer school after grade 12, then grade 12 at the Advanced level, then summer school again, then Grade 13. From there I became a Art Director and Children’s Librarian (and professional storyteller). After I left the library all my roles were people asking me if I would be interested in a certain role (due to my work ethics and networking) - all these roles paved the way to my current career - Scrum Master - and I feel this will be my role for good!!
