Born in Vancouver, Jennifer has lived most of her life alternating between the prairies of Alberta and the rainforest of the West Coast. Her interest in writing developed in high school where she wrote for her school’s newspaper and literary magazine and had several pieces published in a province-wide youth magazine.

She graduated in 1995 with B.A in History and English from Simon Fraser University and put her writing and editing talents to use in the corporate world editing technical and office documents for a variety of companies. In 2003 she began working in the disability issues community on youth related issues.

In her spare time, Jennifer volunteers with a local cat shelter, several historical organizations and participates in historical re-enactments. She currently lives with three feline yogis who are trying to teach her that perfect balance can be attained without the use of four paws and a tail.

Jennifer obtained her Fund Raising Certification & Diploma from BCIT in 2007.  Six Senses Yoga is excited to learn she will use her experience to create our fabulous fundraiser in 2012.

Teasingly her mother told her that when she turned 10 nature would give her webbed feet, she could choose to either have them removed or kept.  Though most people chose to have them removed, this is why she saw few people with webbed feet.  “Wow that’s so cool; I want to keep them so when I go swimming I wouldn’t need flippers.  I could swim so much faster wow.  I could be just like a duck.  When she was told she was being teased, her response was “That’s alright, but it sure would have been cool!!”
