Immediate Past District 60 Director – 2019-2020


It was a pleasure to serve as your District Director 2019-2020.

As I continue my Toastmasters journey, I am honoured to continue to serve as your Immediate Past District Director (IPDD) as well as your District Leadership Committee Chair for 2020-2021.

Do you remember why you joined Toastmasters? I joined because I wanted to progress in my career. I knew that to make that happen, I needed help: help to be a better communicator and help to be a better leader.

From the first moment I entered the room at my very first Toastmasters meeting, I was greeted by a vibrant group of young professionals, as serious about their professional development as they were about having fun.

This quality club experience had me hooked from the very first day, and I was never disappointed. I believe it was an excellent educational experience that kept me going back… for 28 years!

As a leader on my own learning journey, I am committed to helping everyone I meet to understand the incredible value that Toastmasters has to offer. For companies, this is an incredible learning and development program for all employees and I strongly believe the bottom line of every company that has their own in-house Toastmasters program.

For individuals, this value can mean a promotion at work, or surviving a speech at someone’s wedding (or knocking it out of the park), or finding the courage to use your voice.

Whether you’re in it for the long-haul like me or working toward some very specific short-term goals, Toastmasters is a community and a family like no other.

Our District has a proud history and a wonderful heritage of exceptional leaders throughout the years.  I would be honoured to continue that incredible legacy by serving as your 2019-2020  District Director.
