Having worked closely with children of varying age groups, as well as with children facing challenges, Elizabeth has learned there is always something a child can teach you. After graduating from the University of Waterloo with a Bachelor of Arts in Peace and Conflict Studies, a career in banking brought Elizabeth new opportunities to learn, new skills to master, and new goals to set. She embraced every role, building knowledge and strong relationships. She is often found in nature, and meditation and reflection are her valued tools. A fascination with astrology turns her gaze toward the stars. Learning and growth are themes in her life as she strives for inner peace. Elizabeth knows to count her blessings.
