I love to work with people, especially those with unique and fascinating ideas. I love to problem solve. I am considered to be an innovator by peers and clients. A great day for me involves defining short-term and long-term organizational strategic goals, building key relationships that enhance my community, and identifying growth opportunities for your business and for mine. Set apart and different than the rest, I prefer working in a space where no one else has had the clever forethought or the intestinal fortitude to engage and take action.Versatility is a personal strength allowing me to blend seamlessly in conversation from on-farm producers to C-level executives. If you have an idea to share, let’s talk.I’ve spent a balanced career in both the public sector and the private sector with a current emphasis on building Your Farm Market into a thriving year-round farm market in Woodstock, Ontario. As Manager of 30+ staff, marketing, communication, policy, inventory control, and finance, it’s a challenging role that keeps me coming back for more each day.Award winning communicator, strategist, collaborator, and builder of resilient rural and local economies. Mother of two teens, avid foodie, and municipal wonk.
