Board of Directors

Bradley Schiele - President

Saskatoon, SK

My daughter Ali was diagnosed at 18 months with Angelman Syndrome (Deletion). My wife Tracy and I attended our first CASS conference in Ottawa of 2014.  In 2015, I became a Community Relations member for CASS and in 2017, the Vice President/Director. My hope is to create opportunity for the Canadian Angelman community.  Opportunity for individuals with AS to reach their full potential in life. Opportunity for families with AS children to have access to education, support and friendship. 

Christa Graham - Vice President

Sharon, ON

I have an 16 year old son with Angelman Syndrome and received tremendous support through the various Facebook groups, conferences and social events after our diagnosis and always wanted get involved with an organization that would allow me to give back to other. I hope we are able to build a community that is able to support each other through each new challenge we encounter and a community that celebrates every new challenge we overcome.

Terry Singleton - Director

Edmonton, ALB

Our son Daniel was the first person in Alberta to be diagnosed with Angelman syndrome. I have been involved with CASS/ASFC since 1996 after my wife Linda attended her first conference in Calgary. My dreams for the Angelman community are the same as what we had for our son: a good life including valued social roles, surrounded by friends, medical care and opportunities for a better, meaningful life. 

Gina Ciampa - Director

Vaughn, ON

My twin daughters Samantha & Christina have Angelman Syndrome and were born in 1996. They received their diagnosis when they were 9 years old. I also have another daughter Julia born in 2000. For most of their early years, there really wasn’t much information on Angelman Syndrome. My hope is to have a one-stop shop where families come together for support, education and inspiration; A place to get help with real life challenges that families with Angels face every day. 

Amy Monk - Director

I am the proud Mom to Davis (UPD), who was diagnosed with Angelman Syndrome in 2020. I have been actively involved with the ASF Canada since Davis’ diagnosis - coordinating the Angelman Strong fundraising walk in Calgary each year and participating in the Chicago Marathon in support of the ASF Canada in 2024. My hope is that we can empower families, caregivers and support teams with accurate information on research, therapeutic opportunities, and disability supports to ensure that all Angels have the resources to reach their full potential.

Audrey Rouleau - Director

I am mom to Zac, 20yo, who lives with Angelman Syndrome. I became a board member in January 2024 but was already helping the organization with English - French translations. I also am a coordinator for the Angelman Walk in Quebec City, our hometown. My main goal is to educate the population about AS while raising awareness and help my community the best way I can!
