Our Core Crew
Founder & Chief Meaningful Work Officer
I am a Canadian small-town wifey, mama, and proud dog momma of 2. Outdoorsy moments with the fam are my jam, and rumor has it I’m kind of funny. I enjoy early mornings, coffee in hand, and writing in my dream journal. I am a sucker for country music and dancing in the living room with my future hubby and our daughter.
Meaningful work sparks joy and gratitude into my life. Being able to practice meaningful work as a way of life has allowed me to align my values and goals both professionally and personally. Adding value to a greater cause, and providing impact out into the world is something I have dreamt of my entire life.

Chief of Staff
I love hiking, traveling to new places and good food. Would love to combine all three and visit Ireland and Sweden one day. I find puns as "punny" as my kids do. My favorite movie is Armageddon.
Meaningful work allows me to be intentional of the value I want my life to hold. When I love what I do, meaningful work truly aligns with a meaningful life.

Head of Operations
I love cats, plants, and quilting (essentially, I am an old woman trapped in a millennial body). I will never say “no” to coffee or sushi. Parks and Recreation is my all-time favorite show. Hiking and running races are my two favorite reasons to be outside and I have a life goal to visit all 63 US national parks.
Meaningful work helps me to be the best I can be. When I feel that I am a part of something bigger than myself, I have the energy to move mountains.

Project Management Lead
As a dad of four adventurous boys, so life is always in motion. My wife and I are all about diving into new experiences together, from concerts to live sports to festivals and more. Food? I’m a fan of it all, but if it were up to me, Mexican cuisine would be on the menu every day. I’m also a CrossFit junkie, always challenging my limits and embracing the grind. On the creative side, my passion for podcasting lets me dig into the future of work, exploring ideas that help shape what's next for all of us. Whether I'm hitting a workout, recording the next podcast episode, or brainstorming the next big innovation, I’m all in on living a life with no regrets.
I think about meaningful work every single day, and I've learned that it's the sum of 4 essential connections between us and the work experience: doing work that connects us with our authentic self, with others, with our ideal role(s), and with something bigger than ourselves. These 4 connections are the pathway to meaningful work.

Chief Strategy Officer
I’m a tech-savvy problem solver with a passion for growth—both personally and professionally. Between managing creative projects, pursuing new AI-driven passions, and spending quality time with my family, I’m always looking for ways to improve. Coffee, podcasts, and fitness are daily staples, and I’ve got a soft spot for creative video projects.
Meaningful work for me is about contributing to something bigger than myself. When I can help others see results and grow, it energizes me to keep pushing boundaries and finding new ways to succeed.

Head of Production & Innovation
One of my favorite things (possibly my absolute favorite thing) to do is light a candle, curl up in bed, and read a book! I love hanging out with my friends and family and creating experiences that last a lifetime. These days, you can probably catch me at a concert…or hanging out with my dogs (there’s almost no in between).
Meaningful work is both purposeful and personal. Taking pride in the work that you do and having it contribute to something bigger than yourself is something that I will always strive for.

Podcast Manager
I have a passion for creative projects that help people drive their businesses and brands. When I’m out of the office, I love a mix of the gym/boxing, eating a lot of food, and spearfishing when the weather is nice.
Meaningful work allows me to stay sane because I can feel accomplished from all of the time and effort I have put in whilst helping people's creative visions come to life.

Our Team Mascot
I’m not your typical worker... I LOVE MY JOB! You’ll see my charismatic face on the PeopleForward Network logo, skipping my way to work each day. My joyful spirit encapsulates the essence of what PFN stands for – thriving in meaningful work.
For me, meaningful work isn't just a buzzword; it's a way of life. I believe that meaningful work aligns with one's passions and purpose. It is the kind that energizes rather than exhausts, allowing people to thrive both professionally and personally. Meaningful work should add vitality and fulfillment, going beyond personal satisfaction. It involves contributing to a greater good, whether it's making a positive impact on colleagues, clients, or the community at large. Work is meaningful when it creates a harmonious blend where professional endeavors seamlessly integrate with personal values and aspirations.
