Lea WiensChair
I am inspired by people who really listen! A hero of mine is Michelle Obama. A little quirk about me is that I tried to get a refund when I found out I could not take the stairs to the top of the CN Tower! Contact: lea.wiens@sport4lifecochrane.com |

Ashley FoxVice-Chair
I am inspired by connection - with others, nature, with my body and how it moves, and feeling connected with the community. A hero of mine is my mom. She is loving, community minded and always willing to help someone in need. She has an infectious energy and is a true example of how your everyday actions and choices can make the world a better place. A little quirk about me is that I feel naked without earrings!

Dawn TurnerSecretary
I am inspired by people supporting community and connection. My hero is my mentor, friend, and co-worker. She instilled in me the value of building relationships, respect for your team, and adventure (stepping outside the box)! A quirk about me is I’m a numbers nerd. Contact: Dawn.Turner@sport4lifecochrane.com |

Geneviève BoivinDirector & Program Manager
I am inspired by the power of human connections. My hero is my grandma for teaching me that situations are never too serious for a good joke! One quirk about me is that I started MTB two years ago because it is never too late to try a new sport! Contact: genevieve.boivin@sport4lifecochrane.com |

Laura McDonaldSecretary and Operations
Laura is a proud mom of two phenomenal children who comes from a non-profit background, having spent many years in arts administration. After returning to SAIT as a mature student, Laura now specializes in business operations and accounting, with a passion for small business and supporting entrepreneurs. Laura was a founder and former President of the Friends of Fireside School Society, and is one of many proud volunteers who built the inclusive playground in Fireside. Laura pursued a volunteer position with Sport4Life Cochrane because she LOVES this town, and believes we can develop a truly inclusive and accessible community. I am inspired by Cochrane's strong volunteer community. Cochrane has such engaged and passionate community members, dedicating their time and truly walking the walk, making change and progress happen. Also, F1 driver Lewis Hamilton. He's amazing. My hero is my family. Our family's world is shaped by disability, and the complexities of that, but I couldn't be prouder of the strength and bond we've built. It's never simple, and it is often difficult, but I'm so grateful to share this wild life with my husband and our daughters. A quirk about me is my side hustle; I'm a cartoon actor! Your children may be listening to me right now... |
