Comment: This draft does not yet show that your subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. Please see WP:42 for more information on what kind of sources you need. At least three suitable sources are generally required; a suitable source meets all three criteria in WP:42. In particular, interviews with or sources written by the subject (or their friends, family, colleagues, etc) are not considered independent. Please take note of the guidance for using LinkedIn, Instagram and Forbes contributors as sources. When referring to your subject, please use her surname rather than her first name - for example, Stephanie was born in Ontario, Canada
should beHarrison was born in Ontario, Canada
.As this is a biography of a living person, all statements must be cited to a reliable source. Please either find suitable references for, or remove, any currently unsourced statements. As a final note, beware of WP:REFBOMBs - only extraordinary claims need to be backed up by multiple sources; most of the time only a single source is needed. Trimming your sources down so that you present a few really solid sources will be better for your draft than presenting lots of weak sources. Meadowlark (talk) 05:43, 18 July 2026 (UTC)
