After attending Dalhousie and York University my career began as accounting manager for a small business that ventured in to a newly sought after market of providing short term accommodations for executives within the Toronto landscape. Having a skill for sales and team management, I worked side by side with the owner developing the largest furnished housing provider in the GTA over a 9 year period. Realizing the opportunity and benefit of nurturing relationships and network, I fostered the first network across Canada for cross booking, a standard practice used by most industry partners today. This developed into being the previous owner and operator of one of the largest Corporate Housing Brokerages in North America built from scratch nurturing a long standing team of 18 years plus incurring over 4.5 million in sales annually with an international corporate client base. I have been graced with many long standing professional and personal long standing close relationships.

Of all of my extensive experience, skills and accomplishments over 3 decades, I appreciate, respect and nurture the multitude of various relationships and connections I have gained whether a 10 minute interaction with a one time client or a 15 year network with a large corporate account! Meeting people, new insight, learning, growing, hearing different perspectives and experiences has been part of my own growth and achievements. I thrive on being a catalyst, supporter and initiator in helping others focus and achieve personal and professional growth. Im a proud mother of one and an advocate in providing support, guidance and family to two teens in unfortunate family circumstance. I have been fortunate to have a large family base, appreciating the close and supportive bonds that parents, siblings and extended family provides. Our networks, connections and sharing of knowledge and experiences is what provides us with a base both personally and professionally.
