I'm a mother of two firecracker kids. I teach yoga and spin, love craft beer and entertaining with our friends and neighbours here in Dundas, Ontario. I spent most of my childhood in the Ottawa Valley. I love to fish. I was privileged to grow up on the Ottawa River swimming, boating, hiking Oiseau Rock and visiting The Fort (known and loved spots by locals).
