Natasha is 16 year member with West Van Police and from a large policing family. Her father, a retired NCO RCMP mbr, would help female members during his career. Although this was not the norm, this type of leadership resonated with Natasha. In fact, it reminds her of BCWLE’S vision and is one of the reasons she joined and shares with other members as to why they should join BCWLE.
Prior to policing, Natasha was the Fundraising and Marketing coordinator for Shakespeare In The Park while attending Mount Royal University in Calgary. She was the lone media/sales/fundraising and donor liaison, and wrote grant submissions and media releases. She found the clothing and helped with the design for the logo for the troupe’s swag. Natasha also worked for the Vancouver Canucks in their promotions department as an Ice Team member and Country Music Television when they were in Calgary.
