Cathy was born in Toronto, Canada to her parents who immigrated from Europe. She has been with the Dream Team since 2010. Recovery has been a long process and she got the most support from George Herman House, a group home for young women. Her immediate family lives in the Toronto area. She currently lives with her cat, Blue Moon. She has been volunteering at a nursing home for 12 years. Her future plans include going to school for musical therapy at Wilfried Laurier. In the past, she attended classes on Film and Television, Kundalini Yoga, and basic American Sign Language. Her favourite inspirational quotes are: “The birds don’t worry about where their food will come from tomorrow” from her mom, and “Even if it’s cloudy, the sun is still shining behind the clouds” (Yogi Bhajan).
