SARAH CLARK

A born communicator, I have been a writer at heart since I first put pencil to paper. My early love of language lead to a life-long passion with communications. Over the years, I have had the unique opportunity to learn from some of the most respected educational facilities, like the University of Western Ontario and I currently participate in online studies via Coursera. Aside from a strong background in Communications, I have experience with provincial pandemic planning and training from the CDC in Crisis and Emergency Response Communications. While working at Canadian Blood Services, I was fortunate to receive extensive media training and experience training others. In my spare time, I love reading, knitting, and losing at FIFA to my son.
