...of living with trauma in a forward-thinking, positive, professional and connective format.
She is one of the 28,900,000 with a first-hand understanding of the long-term impact of living with trauma.
planITgirl’s goal is to help people who may also be impacted to understand and manage the impact through shared stories, creative connections and positive resources.
I moved to Vancouver (BC) from Calgary (AB) in 1992 looking to pursue a career as a Journalist. My interest in studying journalism stemmed from my life-long passion for writing and storytelling.
I had just turned 21 and was SO excited to be on my way to achieving my dreams. Three months after I arrived however I was robbed and kidnapped at gunpoint when working on my own in a retail setting.
I literally disappeared without a trace for nine days.
So today, I share my story through planITgirl while building a community through planITgirl.com.
My ultimate goal is to make an impact through the power of story telling… and community connections.
