She holds a Master’s in Public Policy from the University of Toronto, a Bachelor’s in Health Policy from York University, focusing on the social determinants of health, and an executive certificate from Yale University on Fostering Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion. Aline has extensive experience with equity-deserving groups and received the Governor General’s King Charles III Coronation Commemoration medal in 2024.
A woman of distinction is an inspiration to others who has made a commitment to her community as a leader and a role-model. As a catalyst for change, she breaks new ground and old barriers.
