      Managing Director

      As one of two partners, I helped grow this vacation rental management company in Canada's premier mountain resort from 12 units managed to over 175 private homes and condominiums under management including one all suite hotel at the base of Blackcomb Mountain. I was responsible for owner relations, business development, sales, and customer service. In 2001 we sold this company to our largest competitor, and I remained part of their team as a Vice President for two years.

      I served on the board of this organization for just under 5 years with the last 2 years in the role of Chairperson. I worked with 8 other community tourism partners to raise the profile of Squamish as a destination tourism location. As a commitment to Squamish's tourism industry we felt it was important to enroll in the good governance program so that we had the experience necessary to move the organization forward.
