Ellie recently graduated from the University of Ottawa with a degree in Psychology, where she developed a passion for understanding the human mind and behaviour, exploring mindfulness and well-being, and finding meaningful ways to help others. She is also a teacher at Park Street Education, where she has witnessed firsthand the power of conversation and connection while facilitating peer to peer groups for kids.

With previous experience leading ESL discussion groups and writing mindfulness audio scripts, Ellie is drawn to initiatives that centre mental health, personal growth, and relationship-building. She strongly believes that no matter what challenges we’re facing, there is deep value in connecting with others who share similar experiences, reminding us that we are not alone and that healing often happens in community. In her free time, she likes to spend time outdoors, attend pilates classes, listen to music and try out new recipes.
