Detailed Information

I have 10 years of professional experience, the last 7 of which have been focused on building technology strategies for companies in the Resources industry. I specialize in end-to-end Data & AI adoption, including prototype development, large-scale organizational enablement, and value realization. While in university, I spent three years volunteering for my chapter of Robogals with the goal of creating opportunities for young girls to engage with coding and robotics. With Robogals, I designed and led workshops, organized volunteer opportunities, and trained new volunteers. As a consultant, I spent two years owning the relationship between my company and a local Women’s shelter in Calgary, Canada. During that time, I led two non-profit consulting projects, including supporting a business continuity plan and a research and analytics program. I am passionate about equality, supporting women and children, and technology, and am eagerly seeking opportunities to contribute my skills and knowledge to a greater cause.
