Teaching

I'm in my 15th year of teaching at Humber College, where I teach Sitcom Writing in the Comedy Writing & Performance program and the (currently paused/soon-to-be-online) Television Writing & Producing post-grad program. I've also taught screenwriting at Sheridan College, and conducted writing workshops at the Writers’ Federation of Nova Scotia, Comedy Bar, and Soulpepper Academy.

​

My mentorship experience includes FEM Script Lab, Writers Guild of Canada’s Diverse Writers’ Initiative, and Frontier College, and I've been a guest lecturer at various educational institutions, including Ryerson University and the Canadian Film Centre.

​

In September 2021, when all learning was being done online due to Covid, my colleagues Christel Bartelse, Melody Johnston and I launched Comedy Coop, an online comedy school for women. We offered a variety of online comedic classes, including Standup Comedy, Improv, Sitcom Writing, Physical Comedy, Comic Characters/ Acting, Creating Your Own Solo Show, and hosted some amazing special guest speakers. We've been interviewed on CTV, CBC Radio and many print and online publications.
