Manager, Product Management

I am passionate about creating a Jonas that is highly functional and effective for our clients. I love hearing from our customers and getting their honest feedback about the software so that we can make it better for them. Before joining Jonas, I earned a BSc from the University of Toronto and began my career as a Marketing Analyst. After taking some time away to raise a family, I became involved in the Construction Industry and held various accounting roles for almost 15 years, before moving to Jonas eight years ago. I enjoyed several years as a ‘Jonas road warrior’, travelling North America and the Caribbean to train our fabulous clients, before moving into the role of Product Manager. I am excited every day to take all that I learned as a Trainer to make the product the best it can be for our clients. What I love about Jonas is the people. The old saying about ‘not getting to choose your family’ goes for your co-workers as well. You often don’t have a say in who sits next to you or who you have to collaborate with. At Jonas, our co-workers are also our friends; the people we look forward to spending time with after work is done. On a personal note, I love to travel and learn about new and different places.  Closer to home, I enjoy sailing Georgian Bay, Kayaking, and Gardening.
