5 years ago today, I began my first job with Emergency Management Ontario and started my career with the Ontario Public Service. Since then, I’ve held 3 positions, lived in 4 different cities, and flown on more airplanes than I can count! I’m so grateful to have had the opportunity to see as much of the province as I have, and for the amazing opportunities I’ve had to learn and grow into my different positions. It’s been a wild (and at times, challenging) ride, but I wouldn’t trade it for anything! . . This picture was taken in Marathon, Ontario during Emergency Preparedness week in 2014, when I was still a Field Officer. An epidemiologist was teaching students about the importance of hand washing to prevent the spread of diseases. I, of course, took the opportunity to show off my jazz hands! #365daysofgratitude #gratitude #emergencymanagement #EMNerd #ONReady #ONPrepare #prepareyourselfie
