Professional communications

I am an early career professional with experience in corporate communications and public policy analysis.

Since graduating from the University of Toronto’s Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy, I have worked in the Public Diplomacy Division at NATO HQ in Brussels, and served as an Assistant to the Minister of Economic Development and Trade in the Government of Alberta.

I also work as a freelance writer and editor.

In 2017 and 2019, I worked in the office of the Minister of Economic Development and Trade for the Province of Alberta. As a Ministerial Assistant, I reported to the Minister’s Chief of Staff and took on a range of duties supporting the Minister’s work. I triaged incoming correspondence and phone calls, determining what needed the Minister’s attention, and helping draft and edit his responses. I acted as a liaison point between the Minister and the civil servants and subject matter experts in the department. I wrote and edited briefing notes, speeches, and policy documents, and conducted ad hoc policy research. I also staffed the Minister at meetings with stakeholders (industry leaders, academic researchers, start-up founders, foreign legislators, etc.) and at events, briefing him before meetings and managing his schedule.
