About
Brand builder, team builder, storyteller.
The short version
I started my career in marketing communications at a small software company in Vancouver, then moved to Kodak, where I led global product communications for a color and proofing portfolio. In 2007, I joined TELUS International, then a 3,000-person operation in a single country. I stayed for 18 years, most recently as VP, Customer Marketing & Brand, and watched it become TELUS Digital, a global company of 80,000 people, with a public listing along the way.
I've been lucky to do almost every kind of marketing: brand, product, content, demand generation, events, PR, analyst relations and investor communications. What ties them together is that I'm a storyteller at heart. I like making complicated things clear, simple, meaningful and memorable, and then proving that they work.
Beyond the job title
- I taught a B2B marketing certificate program at Simon Fraser University for four years, while running global marketing at TELUS International.
- I volunteer on the Marketing Program Advisory Committee at Okanagan College.
- I was recently selected to serve as an Information Officer in the 2026 BC Provincial General Election, and I'm proud of this civic duty.
- I studied business at SFU, with a joint major in Marketing and Finance and the co-op program.
- I'm keeping my skills sharp on generative AI and how AI search is changing the way buyers find and trust content.
For fun, I love reading, hot yoga, Pilates, and walking with my Labradoodle, Larry. Nothing beats time with my kids when they come home to visit from their busy lives in Toronto and Boston.
What I'm looking for next
I'm looking for a senior marketing leadership role, VP or Senior Director level, at a growth-stage B2B company. The best fit is a team that wants to connect brand, product, content and revenue, and where marketing has a seat at the table.
I'm especially excited by companies with a real story to tell, in categories where trust matters: technology, AI, data, and enterprise software.
I'm based in Kelowna, British Columbia, and comfortable working remotely, adjusting my hours to fit your team's time zone, and traveling when it matters.
