Originally from Ireland, Hilary made the exciting move with her family to start a new life adventure in Canada.

While a single mother and raising four children she returned to school where she earned a Bachelor's degree in Education from the University of Calgary, Alberta. She then went on to study her Masters in Educational Leadership at San Diego State University. 

Having lived for many years with celiac disease, Hilary is more than aware of the issues it presents and is involved in promoting awareness and open dialogue.

Hilary loves to paint and draw. She specializes in water colours and experimenting with acrylics. Now, with her iPad and digital art app in hand, Hilary is loving her new found hobby of digital art painting.

Writing is another of Hilary’s favorite pastimes and she has written several textbooks. She has also co-authored the Amazon International Best Seller, Inch by Inch, Growing in Life. 

Taking early retirement, a little fishing village in Mexico, with its many restaurants, musical talents and other contributions have captured Hilary’s heart. She has lived the winter months in Mexico for many years and spends her summers in Canada.
