About Me.
I'm a native Calgarian & highly experienced marketing professional.
As a Senior Marketing Manager in commercial real estate, I blend strategy, creativity, and design expertise to support property and investment sales across Canada. I partner with senior leaders and brokerage teams to craft tailored marketing campaigns, standout proposals, and visually engaging collateral that win business and strengthen our brand.
Beyond the work, I lead with empathy - prioritizing clear communication, collaboration, and a shared sense of purpose. I believe the best outcomes come from teams that feel supported, heard, and empowered to do their best work. I thrive in high-paced environments where strategy meets storytelling, and where collaboration is key. Whether aligning teams on a major pitch, refining a brand message, or rolling out cross-functional initiatives, I bring precision, creativity, and a people-first mindset to everything I do.
As I grow, I’m focused on continuing to evolve as a marketing leader - deepening my strategic influence, expanding cross-functional impact, and mentoring others along the way.​​​
Let's Get Personal
I enjoy an eclectic mix of interests that keep life engaging and often delightfully unpredictable. I'm passionate about motorsports and can't get enough cycling, baking, gardening, travel, and hands-on creative projects. I also hold a second-degree black belt in Shintani Wado-Kai Karate - an experience that taught me focus, discipline, and how to stay calm in the face of flying Lego bricks. Life is never dull thanks to my husband, our two wonderfully chaotic children, and our two comparatively well-behaved cats.
