Helping women entrepreneurs achieve what they believe is possible is what we show up for – every single day

😂

Spending time with my family and friends, getting out in nature, swimming, getting lost in a book, walks in the rain, watching a sunset or travelling!

I’m inspired by being able to make a difference, however small it may seem, to someone’s day or journey, and to be a part of a network supporting women and championing others in everything we do. I am passionate about being able to contribute to safe spaces where people feel they belong, that they are empowered and supported, and where we call all lift each other up.

The Forum Events

 

😂

Packing my camper and setting off on the open road with my family, my camera, my snorkel fins and a new beautiful BC destination in sight.

Working at The Forum means that I’m working to support women as they break barriers to achieve their economic well-being.

Marketing, Communications, Brand, Content & Digital

 

🤣

I love dreaming up home projects, enjoying cozy evenings by the fire with family and friends, and exploring the outdoors with my husband and little ones. Lazy summer days on the dock and unwinding with a good book or show after the kids are in bed are my perfect balance.

I’m truly passionate about uniting our dedicated supporters and advocates of The Forum to create meaningful change for women-identifying entrepreneurs across Canada, helping them unlock their full potential. My focus is on growing the resources available to our community through strategic funds development, ensuring that we can continue to empower and uplift women-identifying entrepreneurs with the support they need to thrive. By expanding our network of champions, I strive to build lasting relationships that drive real, impactful change for the women who are shaping the future of business in Canada.

Strategy, engagement, and growth of our supporters

Outdoor sweaty pursuits on the mountain, by the beach and everywhere in between, experimenting in the kitchen, enjoying full belly laughs with friends and family, and chasing sunsets.

I am deeply passionate about bringing together our dedicated supporters and champions of The Forum to drive real change for women entrepreneurs across Canada, empowering them to reach their full potential.

Engagement & Stewardship of Our Generous Supporters

Starting the day with black tea, heart filled connection time with friends and family, dance parties, moving the body in any way.

I’m passionate about building meaningful relationships and connecting entrepreneurs with the champions and resources that can help propel them forward. I love hearing about the entrepreneurs and their unique business journey, understanding what’s real for them, and connecting them with support that truly fits. At The Forum, I’m proud to be part of sparking real change for women entrepreneurs across Canada as they unlock their full potential.

Ecosystem Partnerships, Entrepreneur & Community Building, Program Development

 

😊

Spending time with friends, a cozy cup of coffee on a rainy day, gaming with friends, and baking - enough to share!

I am most inspired when I get to support others and support a community of incredible people. It's a huge privilege to be part of a team that facilitates that community for women entrepreneurs to thrive.

Securing Support and Building Lasting Sponsor Relationships for The Forum

 

😂

Camping and spending time outdoors, spontaneous dance parties, reading a good book, and sharing snacks with friends.

I believe that everyone has the potential to achieve their version of success if they are supported and empowered by those around them. I am so excited that my role at The Forum helps women-identifying entrepreneurs build a community of support that will provide a safe space for them to learn more about their businesses, and grow both personally and professionally!

Program Operations, Strategy & Delivery

 

😂

Yoga! I’m a newbie yoga teacher, and a regular practitioner. I find solace in the quiet of yoga, strength in the movement, and energy in sharing the practice with friends.

I’ve spent the majority of my career as an entrepreneur, and recognize how much support it takes to have the courage to start and grow a business. I love that The Forum supports entrepreneurs at all stages of their journey, while working to build a world where all women have an equal opportunity to achieve their goals.

Our vision & strategy

 

🤝

Going on long drives, playing with kitties, dancing along to Beyoncé and BTS, hot chai and iced coffees, and going on adventurous hikes.

I was able to become the “me” I am today because of the inspiring women who not only provided me with a seat at the table, but empowered me to empower myself. To be able to pay it forward with The Forum, in supporting and championing women entrepreneurs, is a privilege I will always be honoured to have.

Program Delivery Execution & Post-Program Support

 

😄

Reading before bed, making a london fog tea to get my day started & getting outside to be with my son at the playground before dinner -- which gets my body moving and keeps my heart full.

I'm passionate about activating our community of supports - sponsors and donors - to help The Forum impact women entrepreneurs across the country so that they may thrive.

Our fundraising initiatives

 

🥰

Evening walks, listening to podcasts, and seeing my favourite artists in concert.

I believe that when women come together, they thrive together. It's inspiring to be a part of an organization that cultivates a safe space for women entrepreneurs to connect, learn, and grow.

Content Strategy & Execution across Editorial, Social Media, and Website

 

🙈

Getting outside with my family, especially bike rides around the seawall that end with an ice cream or bubble tea, listening to my kids’ laugh, cooking, date nights, moms’ nights out tasting our way through the city, and organizing my home (or anyone else who will let me organize theirs!).

My greatest source of fulfillment is being of service to others and watching them thrive doing what they love most. To be part of The Forum which supports women entrepreneurs in doing just that is a privilege I am honoured to have.

Operations

 

🌻 😂

Cooking up a nice meal, playing scrabble, taking a quite walk, digging into a bowl of nachos and salsa, getting lost in a good book, slow painting.

I deeply champion entrepreneurship as it takes great grit and determination to move from vision to reality. At The Forum, I love the community - strong women entrepreneurs who are breaking barriers and introducing new innovations. Each day, it's a privilege to be able to support them in their journeys and be surrounded by the passion and perspective they bring to the table.

Impact Measurement, Research, Strategic Insights

 

🥰

Spending time outside, going for walks with my family or our dog, cooking, adventures at the family cabin, quality time with friends and family, and enjoying the quiet after a busy day.

I am deeply passionate about supporting The Forum team and the community we serve. I am honored to be part of an organization that fosters positive change and growth, inspiring women entrepreneurs to thrive.

Executive Administration

 

😂

Any combination of a laugh with girlfriends, a cup of tea, a glass of red wine, the New York Times crossword puzzle, or a Kdrama will always delight me.

I love seeing women thrive and win in life. It is my dream to engage with diverse groups of women entrepreneurs and connect them to the educational and financial resources they need, as well as networks that champion them, their growth, and their work.

Program Design & Curriculum Development

 

❤️

Starting a new arts and craft, reading a good book, watching reality television, and trying out a new restaurant with friends.

I am passionate about using my work to create a positive impact on people's daily lives. I am grateful that through my work at the Forum I am able to support a community of women to change their lives through entrepreneurship.
