Eileen Cooke has been a member of the Shag Harbour UFO Incident Society since 2024, bringing experience in tourism, museum operations, historical research and public engagement to her role.
As Society Secretary and Lead for Exhibit Renewal and Development, Eileen plays an active role in the Society’s operations, exhibit improvements and the development of meaningful visitor experiences. She also contributes to several committees and event initiatives, including the annual UFO XPO and Experiencer Team.
Her previous experience includes serving as Assistant to the Director at the Sherman Hines Museum of Photography and Art Gallery and working as a Museum Assistant at the Hank Snow Country Music Centre. These roles provided valuable experience in visitor relations, museum operations and sharing history with the public. She also brings research skills, along with experience in administration and event planning.
Eileen’s involvement began with a longstanding curiosity about the unknown and a conviction that there is more to the universe than meets the eye. Already familiar with the paranormal, she was encouraged by a friend and current Society board member to become involved. What began as a search for answers soon led to even more questions and a growing desire to continue exploring the unexplained while encouraging others to do the same.
