Heather Ouellette

Reception

Heather hails from New Brunswick but has been living in Halifax since she started her degree in 2016. She recently graduated with her Bachelor of Science with Honours in Psychology from Dalhousie University. Heather has been working with us since summer 2018. She started at the food desk and then moved to reception in the fall of 2019. Her favorite part about working here are her lovely co-workers and the cute animals she gets to see. Heather has a cat named Oreo and shares 3 other fur babies, Blossom, Talbot and Malkie, with her sister. In her spare time she enjoys spending time with her boyfriend, doing crafts, caring for her many houseplants, snuggling with her kitties, and watching reality tv with her sister.
