Meet the Team

I became involved with Telecare in 2024 while attending school and was inspired by the organization's belief that no one should have to face life's challenges alone. What started as an interest in the important work Telecare does quickly turned into a passion for supporting its mission.

Over the past two years, I have had the privilege of working alongside an extraordinary group of volunteers and directors who genuinely care about the people they serve. Their compassion, dedication, and willingness to help others continue to inspire me every day.

Since becoming Chair of the Board in June 2025, I have focused on helping Telecare grow, strengthening community awareness, and ensuring our services remain available to those who need them most. It is incredibly rewarding to be part of an organization that brings comfort, hope, and connection to so many people, and I am excited about what the future holds for Telecare and the communities we serve.

I came across the Telecare Distress Line of Greater Simcoe almost by accident, but I quickly came to understand the important role it has played in our community for many years. Having seen the need for compassionate support among family, friends, and people in our community, I wanted to find a way to contribute.

Although I knew that working on the phone line was not the right fit for my personality, I was excited to discover that I could use my background in accounting to support this wonderful organization in another way.

It has been a pleasure getting to know the dedicated volunteers who give so much of their time and compassion to keep Telecare operating. I am grateful for the opportunity to be part of this organization and look forward to continuing to contribute to its growth and future, helping Telecare remain a valued source of support for people in our community.

I believe everyone deserves to feel heard, supported, and connected. 

Being part of this organization that is there for people during difficult moments is something that I find both meaningful and rewarding. 

Volunteering with the Telecare Distress Line is a way for me to contribute to something that really matters. 

I believe that having someone willing to listen, without judgment, can make a real difference when someone is going through a difficult time. I’m happy to be part of a team that helps keep this important service available to our community.
