*I am the mother of a frontline rail worker at CN Rail.

*I have an M.A. in Finance (which means I fully understand the implications of the information disclosed on this website and its potential implications for all “rail families”).

 *I have also studied business/technical writing (again at Masters level) and worked with many a lawyer in the past (which means I have a very keen ability to rip apart all the lies, deceptions, etc. as I work on dissecting “rail worker death investigation reports”, etc.).   I also hold a B.A. in Finance as well as in Psychology and did Masters level work in business/technical writing and in psychology, including in the study of “Industrial” or “Organizational” Psychology and as such, I am most familiar with concepts such as “situational awareness” (used in “death investigation reports”), including the weaknesses/ limitations of such concepts.

 *I am born in Canada and am also a naturalized U.S. citizen.   I care about frontline rail workers and other members of various rail families whether they reside in Canada or the US.

 *I am a documentation queen – in other words – I document things extremely well which is something I learned to do when I worked for a fantastic Global 100 corporation for over a decade, where mistakes were allowed provided lessons were learned!

*My father was a coroner who raised his children to know that, no matter how ugly things can be, FAMILIES HAVE A RIGHT TO AND DESERVE THE TRUTH!

*If there is one thing I can not stand, it is being lied to!

*I can be your strongest ally, or… your worst nightmare!
