Operations and Bookkeeping Coordinator

Nicole Tukker

Since moving to B.C. in the summer of 2017, Nicole has developed a strong interest in agriculture, cultivated by long, west coast summers full of U-pick raspberries and exploring the B.C. wilderness. Though not from an agricultural background, she has fond memories of spending time at her grandparents’ farm in Central Alberta, sowing a passion for the beauty and variety of nature that eventually inspired her to move west. Nicole recently received her bachelor’s degree in English Literature with a focus on creative writing and has completed university courses on copy editing and minute taking. Her acute eye for editing and over a decade’s worth of customer service experience make Nicole aptly positioned to support the staff of BCAC in her role as Administrative Coordinator.
