• I am reading … several books at any one time. Presently, the book of Luke, for growth; Unchristian by David Kinnaman, for research; The Thirteenth Tale by Diane Setterfield, for relaxation.

• Someone who makes me laugh is … my four-year-old grandson Kaden, who can usually talk his way out of any sticky situation.

• At home I cook … rarely, as I am blessed with a husband who could be a chef.

• My first job was … making tire parts for Michelin.

• A person I admire is … my mother, who deals with Parkinson’s Disease each day with an attitude that inspires.

• My secret skill is … unknown even to myself.

• I aspire to … change the attitude of apathy.

• The best invention ever is … the computer, although there are times and situation when I also think this could be the worst.

• My favourite toy as a child was … Lego.

• The best part of what I do for a living is … working with fellow teachers who love their mission and make it a joy to come to work every day.

• My favourite vacation spot is … a small beach in Caribou River.

• I wish I had … a cottage on that little beach.

• If I could invite three people to dinner, alive or dead, they would be … Mark Driscoll, pastor of Mars Hill Church in Seattle; the apostle Paul; and the chef of the Rivlin Restaurant in Jerusalem.

• My favourite thing about the Kennebecasis Valley is … driving to work along the Kennebecasis River and seeing the Creator’s handiwork.
