ARLIN MCFARLANE

Arlin (she/her) comes to LDAY through a lifetime of theatre, film, storytelling, teaching, executive coaching, and delivering communication workshops. She used to refer to her contract lifestyle as providing “ribbons of income”. She has a BA in English from McGill University and an MFA in theatre from the University of Victoria. Both she and other members of her family have LDs and varying amounts of ADHD: something she considers an asset in her current job as Coordinator for the Tutor Program.

Recently Arlin became a grandmama and spending time with her grandkiddos is a welcome priority. Arlin spends her recreational time keeping fit, commuting to work on her bike, and most recently has added learning to play bass to her activity calendar.
