Ali grew up in Kamloops and moved to Chase with her husband and daughter to enjoy small-town living. She has a home-based business selling her products at local farmer’s markets and has become an integral part of the market and an advocate for keeping it strong in our community. Volunteering is part of her passion and she has spent the past 20 years dedicated to her community. She is actively involved with numerous community groups and events in Chase and it is because of her involvement in this community through volunteering that she has decided to run for councillor.
