Kayla is an aspiring urban planner. She was introduced to the planning profession during her third year at McMaster University where she received a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Science and Geography.

She hopes to make a positive difference to society by contributing to sustainable development practices that meet future growth demands while ensuring natural heritage features are protected.

She is also a student member of the Ontario Professional Planners Institute (OPPI) and plans to work towards her Registered Professional Planner (RPP) designation through work experience. She is excited to finish school and enter the planning profession full time this spring.
