I am St. Mary’s Church Bookkeeper since June 2020. I came to Canada from Peru in 2003. A few years later I met the person who is now my husband and we have been blessed with two amazing children. I worked at Trillium Health Partners - Finance Dep. for 16 years before deciding that my life needed a change. Accounting has always been my passion along with reading, dancing and animals. I look forward to getting to know you and continue growing and learning at our beautiful Parish.
