About Me

Welcome to The Outskirts Collective! I’m glad you’re here. This company was built around the idea that there is a place for everyone here. I’ve always been someone who has felt like I live on the outskirts of everything. Whether it was in school, playing sports, or even in my career now, I have always felt like I just didn’t quite belong. As I’ve gotten older I’ve learned that’s ok. Although I struggled with it when I was younger and questioned what I was doing wrong and why people didn’t view things the same way I did, I have grown to learn that this isn’t the worst thing in the world… crazy, right?!

After finishing university, and beginning my career in teaching I started to discover that I was surrounding myself with the wrong people. I kept trying to shift myself into a person I thought people wanted rather than just embracing who I was. I slowly moved further and further from the city and started feeling more and more at home. I finally had the space I needed to breathe.

Fast forward to now where I have found the kind of life that works for me and makes me happy, I hope you are doing the same! I strive to continue reminding people that living on the outskirts isn’t always a bad thing, both in my business and teaching. Hope you come along for the ride!
