Tracy Stewart
Tracy Stewart holds a BFA (with Honours) from the Alberta College of Art and Design, and spent 15 years working in the world of entertainment - channeling her love of film into a career working with film festivals across Canada. After being diagnosed with breast cancer in 2007 at the young age of 36, her life took a major turn, and she emerged from her treatment with a new focus. Tracy is currently studying Holistic Nutrition at the Canadian College of Natural Nutrition, and hopes to use what she is learning to help other cancer patients and survivors deal pro-actively with their health.
Tracy spends her spare time playing roller derby, feeding her still-insatiable appetite for good movies, and baking vegan cupcakes for her friends and neighbours.
