My husband and I moved to Chatham in the early 90's and since then, our family has been fortunate to grow and work and learn and play in Chatham-Kent. I have been a pharmacist for over 30 years, and have spent the last decade+ of my career in healthcare leadership. As rewarding as working in healthcare can be, it can be very demanding and most days, it is all-consuming. I have always enjoyed a rewarding worklife balanced with a wonderful homelife, yet some time ago, I set out in the pursuit of more joy, and my officiant journey began! Because what is more joyful than a wedding? It was non-negotiable for me that I align myself with an organization who shared my core values of inclusivity, respect for all, fairness and integrity. As such, I am very pleased to be a Humanist Officiant. I believe that as you start your life together as a married couple, your wedding ceremony should be a reflection of your values, of who you are. It is my job as an officiant to facilitate a ceremony that is truly your own, representative of who you are as individuals and as a couple. I would be honoured to be your officiant, I consider it a privilege to do this work, to be present at some of the most important moments in peoples’ lives. To your ceremony, I will bring my creativity and enthusiasm, my respect and my sense of humour.
