Hi, I'm Dorothy!
My family and I have called Northumberland home for over 20 years and cherish our home nestled in the Northumberland forest.
I currently teach business and leadership to students at Cobourg Collegiate Institute, as well as being part of the CCI Senior Boys Basketball coaching team. My greatest joy is welcoming CCI grads to share their business successes with my current students.
Prior to teaching, I gained the business skills I share with students by working as an employee benefits and pension specialist, a wealth and estate planning counsellor, marketing in the healthcare sector, as well as having run many small businesses over three decades.

Why are you running?
​​When asked why I am running for MPP of Northumberland - Peterborough South, my answer is usually, "How can I NOT??". With the drastic erosion of our public institutions, from healthcare, to education, to long-term care, it's time for those with a passion for public service and the skills and experience necessary to solve those problems, to step forward. With my background in finance, healthcare, and education, I am excited and determined to fight for all of our riding in getting everyone a family physician, in bringing back school supports, and protecting our farmland.
