Teaching is one of the most rewarding professions, and I hope to influence young students and be an inspiration to them just as my teachers were to me. I feel supported by the Werklund School as it shares my values of leadership and the importance of community engagement. As an educator, it is our responsibility to be involved in our community, to encourage youth involvement and to help realize their potential.

Blended topics consist of our summer residency, and on campus experience held in Summer with online work completed before and/or after your time in Calgary. Fall, Winter, and Spring courses are typically held online through Desire2Learn and Zoom.
