I had the amazing opportunity to travel to Sweden and present at the Ocean Literacy Conference.  I also spent 3 days in classrooms presenting to students and training them how to test their own waterways.

I was on the December 2018 cover of Reader's Digest!  What a huge surprise that was!  There is also an article about me on page 32.  Thank you Reader's Digest.  This is a great national platform for me to spread my message that kids can make a difference!  My story can now be found in many doctor and dentist's office across Canada.  hehe

The MLSE Community Hero Honour is awarded to a young Canadian who is making a difference and whose actions, work, project, or volunteer efforts serve as a model in their communities. Community Heroes go above and beyond the call of duty and have touched the lives of those in their communities, because of their extraordinary actions, words or gifts of kindness and compassion.

Every year EF asks students across Canada to consider an issue in their community and share one idea to help solve it at a local, national, and global level.  I was one of 28 students chosen for this once in a lifetime opportunity.  We travelled into the Amazon Jungle and helped a community build a school.  It was the BEST experience of my life.  

I learned about another culture and got to see a totally different place in the world.  The experienced opened my eyes and inspired me to do more for my own community and beyond.
