Service Director

I am super stoked to be working with such a dynamic team and it is my pleasure to serve as one half of your Service Director Team for the 2026-2027 Kin year.

I joined the Elgin-St.Thomas Kinettes in February 2015 and previously held the position of Bulletin Editor (2015-2016), District1 Communications Director (the later part of 2017-2018) & 2018-2019, Deputy Governor of Zone F 2019-2020 & 2020-2021, Vice Governor 2022-2023 and District Governor 2023-2024. I have additionally worked and assisted with some major projects and fundraisers - my utmost favorite being the “Harry Potter” themed Zone F Spring Zone Conference.

As a competitive “awards junkie”, in my short Kin career, I have been honoured to receive:

Photography Award (2014-2015)
Zone F Kinette Joke Off (2016)
Zone F Junior Bulletin (2015-2016)
Website Award (2015-2016) and

Diane Rogers Kin Pride Award (x3)
Governor Recognition Award (2020)
Outstanding Zone Award (2020-2021)
Decew Phee (2022/23 & 2023/24)

I have attended numerous Zone, Fall Leadership, DLS and Spring Conventions and LOVE a great costume party.

Personally, I have an son (Dalton-26), a 29 year old daughter (Dakota) and an amazing boyfriend Life Member Russ Jackman.
