She currently works in the service industry, where she experiences first-hand the challenges facing many Canadians. But her job also allows her to get to know the faces who make up her community of Haliburton—Kawartha Lakes.

With aspirations to become an educator, Aylea has worked as a private tutor, helping students achieve their educational goals, and spent last summer working with BGC Kawarthas as a Summer Camp Leader. She is currently finishing off the last year of her bachelor's degree at Nipissing University. It is Aylea’s dream to work in the Kawartha Lakes and to give back to the community that helped her grow into the person she is today.

Aylea believes that Canada needs more young people in government. She is ready to put her all into advocating for policies that help everyday Canadians get ahead – not policies that help CEOs get richer.

Aylea is ready to fight for affordable homes, better public health care and shorter wait times, and true climate action that protects the beautiful Canadian landscapes we call home.
