Leadership Team

Behind the scenes are critical leadership roles that support the Relaxation Specialists (RS) and Registered Massage Therapists (RMT) team’s as well as our wellness community. It takes a team to run our boutique spa. The spa opened in Aug of 2019 and the leadership team emerged in early 2021. Each role was added to support the team and the founder so that the company could continue to grow and scale; while improving customer service, our experience and building the vision.    

We continue to evolve, adapt and pivot to the world around us. We continue to look for ways we can improve and strive to do better each and every day. The leadership team contributes to the overall brand and vision of the company through policy creation, training, hiring and coaching. 

As a team we all have our zones of genius (our specialities) in which we operate in and add value to the team overall but we often collaborate and cross train to support each other or add another perspective. 

A desire to prioritize my own health many years ago led me to move away from my current corporate role to pursue further education in holistic nutrition. This brought me into the wellness industry, and I haven’t looked back since!
Understanding my strengths was key in finding my place within the world of wellness. Through the process of launching my own start-up as well as working with other small businesses, I quickly found my sweet spot in business operations, within an industry I care so deeply about.

Above all else, I value collaboration & growth. I consistently strive to improve both personally & professionally, and I have so much gratitude for the opportunity to learn from everyone around me.

Goals: My list of goals is a long one! Currently, my area of focus is strengthening my skills & knowledge around operating multiple locations, as I look forward to being part of bringing Cedar & Steam to NW Calgary!
Something Personal: Outside of work, I love to read, practice yoga, and spend time outdoors with my dog. I am always looking for a new restaurant or coffee shop to try, or an interesting spot outside of the city to explore for a weekend away!

My career started with opportunities that focused on customer service and teamwork. It was a natural transition into Human Resources, which has allowed me to gain practical and diverse experience through providing HR support to teams ranging in size from 10 – 450.

My love for Human Resources stems from my desire to build genuine connections and collaborate with others. I challenge myself to be the best I can be everyday which is why I’m excited to be part of such an innovative and creative team with common goals for continued growth, elevation and success.

I strive to make those around me feel at ease, which allows me to support and mentor those around me, while learning from them. I work hard to continually step outside my comfort zone to grow as both, a professional and a person.

Goals: Travel to new countries to be immersed in other cultures – nurturing myself by promoting self-care and providing new opportunities for self-reflection.
Something Personal: I love to travel! My most recent adventure was to Iceland. Visiting four of Iceland’s top geothermal spas, cultivated my appreciation and love for saunas, steam rooms, and hot springs.

My extensive customer service and management experience has taught me to meet and exceed customers expectations with exceptional service. I am a positive and highly motivated individual who aims to create and maintain productive and effective working relationships with others.

Just prior to working for Cedar & Steam, I obtained an apprenticeship with a Certified Professional Accountant, learning accounts payable, treasury management, inventory, payroll and much of the accounting cycle. I work in operations at the spa as it pertains to the Accounting cycle.

Something Personal: I maintain an active lifestyle outside of the work environment, being active in my community, my family and volunteering at my children’s school and sports. I enjoy finding adventure and fun and can often be found hiking, biking, skiing, in the mountains or socializing with friends and family.

With a Bachelor of Commerce and over seven years of working in various industries, I’ve learned to combine my creative expertise with business acumen as I grew to be the creative professional I am today.
With many years of working in the competitive creative realm of Toronto, my experience ranges from video shooting/ editing, copywriting, photography, and graphic design. With a multifaceted skill set, crafting engaging campaigns and create memorable experiences that resonate with a wide range of audiences has greatly enhanced my genuine passion for connecting art with community.

A genuine and creative professional who values integrity, respect, and community.

Something Personal: I engaged in many different things including but not limited to being a part-time real estate agent with a passion for tattooing, painting, and walking my dog.

I firmly believe that learning is a lifetime adventure and I have been on this path for the past two decades, acquiring expertise in various fields such as science, economics, marketing, accounting, animations, and graphic designing. The motivation to keep learning and chasing the dream make me who I am today. I once designed a magazine cover page and it got nominated for one of the best magazine cover pages in the UK. I always enjoy talking to different people and love researching topics.

I am a simple person who lives a carefree life, without being affected by their past experiences or concerns about the future. I enjoy the present moment with boundless joy and contentment.
