She is a member of the teaching faculty at St. Lawrence College Cornwall Campus, and in the past taught French and English at Royal Military College, Kingston, Ontario and to members of the Canadian Border Services (IBET) as well as the RCMP in Cornwall, Ontario.
Nancy's previous work experience always included translation and interpretation in some capacity, from translating and interpreting menus and wine lists at food fairs (Ontario and Quebec) to telephone interpreting for partners at Price Waterhouse in London, England.
