Chelsea has a penchant for storytelling and loves children, so becoming part of the Book Love Foundation board seemed like a natural fit.

​

In 2003, she and her husband moved to Sudbury, Ontario Canada to raise their two children.

She keeps the drama in her life by acting occasionally for both stage and screen, as well as teaching the youth drama program at the local theatre on Saturday mornings.

​

Currently, Chelsea is the lead digital content specialist for CTV News Northern Ontario where she is responsible for creating original news content and publishing for the organization’s website and social media. She is also a regular columnist for sudbury’s 50+ Seniors Lifestyle Magazine.
