Margaret has been the Operations and Programming Manager at the NRM since January 2022. She holds an MA Public History from Western University and a BA History from the University of Alberta, specializing in Western Canadian history. She oversees everything we do at the NRM. Highlights from her time with us include successful archives and collections projects, epic axe throwing and murder mystery events, hosting hundreds of local student visits, and getting to know the wonderful volunteers who have made the museum their own. When she's not museuming, look for Margaret on the skiing or hiking trails around Hinton!
