Meet the Team

  • I am a thought-partner who digs deep, I am a sounding board when you need to be heard, I am your cheerleader when you need encouragement, and I challenge you when you need to be different.

    My first work experience was working in our family business at a young age. I learned about hard work, discipline, resilience, and dedication were key to entrepreneurship. I had strong mentorship from family members as I grew in the business. After university, I went on to take on progressively more responsible roles in human resources at a large educational institution where I learned about organizational culture, performance, strategy, vision, and execution. It is also when I started working with a coach who helped me to see my blind spots, manage my responses in tough situations, challenged my thinking and learned to take risks.


    I obtained my Certificate in Executive Coaching (CEC) and have completed the Professional Mentor Coaching program through Royal Roads University; I have been acknowledged as a Mentor Coach with an approach that is affirming, thought-provoking and grounding.

    I am credentialed as a Professional Certified Coach (PCC) with the International Coaching Federation (ICF).

    I am a certified trainer with the Expedition Coaching program and have served several terms on the Executive Board with the ICF Prairie Chapter.
