My journey in tech began in high school back in Sudbury, Ontario, where I discovered my passion for computer systems engineering. This spark inspired a 20+ year career that has been driven by my love for using technology to help people.
Now, as a Product Marketing Manager at Blackbaud, one of the top 50 SaaS companies, I lead go-to-market product campaigns for Blackbaud’s Payments technology, supporting nonprofits, educators, socially responsible companies, and change-makers worldwide.

Learning is how we become more, how we develop new skills, and how we generate new ideas. It’s how people grow, innovate, and succeed.
