She has written articles, edited books, created leadership best practices manuals and end user guides. She was a regular content provider for magazines such as REPS!, Status, Oxygen and Muscle magazines.
Since her early days in high school, she was a dedicated community supporter and local volunteer. In 2011 she joined the Canadian Red Cross and found her passion for facilitation; specializing in first aid instruction, safety and prevention. After writing an article on the world’s strongest firefighter, she was inspired to take on a new challenge and in 2013, graduated from Conestoga College with a diploma in Firefighting. After college, she became a Red Cross Training Partner, pooling all her previous experiences and expertise into her small business, Baxter Safety. A lifelong learner, in 2015 she became a Red Cross Instructor Trainer and joined the Emergency Response Team with Disaster Management, supporting both small and large-scale disasters.
Strong communication and facilitation skills, she progressed to become a Psychological First Aid Facilitator and expanded her expertise to include Respect Education, Violence and Abuse Prevention targeting youth and youth workers.
