Program Assistant, Cultural Heritage
From a young age, I was captivated by the stories' objects could tell; each artifact a doorway into a past world, whispering tales of times long vanished yet resonant today. It is with this deep-seated passion for history and a profound respect for the Bruce Museum that I am thrilled to apply for the Museum Educator position. My career has been a journey of connecting history with the public both in-person, and I am eager to bring my expertise in education, research, and public engagement to your esteemed institution.
