What is your role at Vovia?
I’m an Account Coordinator at Vovia, which means I get to be right in the middle of the action, juggling projects, clients, and campaigns to make sure everything comes together seamlessly. My days usually involve organizing deliverables, managing timelines, managing budgets, and keeping an eye on overall project performance. I really enjoy that mix of hands-on execution and big-picture thinking.
What do you do in your spare time?
When I’m not working, I like to stay active and spend as much time outdoors as possible. Whether it’s skiing in the winter or hiking in the summer, I love any excuse to get outside. My chocolate lab, Bronco, is my sidekick on all my adventures. He never turns down a trip.
I’m also a big fan of the gym, so you’ll usually find me there on my lunch breaks getting a workout in. Lastly, to keep things interesting, I’m currently completing my Master of Business Administration at the University of Calgary to deepen my understanding of business and marketing.
Tell us something that would surprise people
Here’s something people don’t usually know about me: I’m a harmonica prodigy. Okay, maybe “prodigy” is a stretch…I can play one song: Piano Man by Billy Joel. My shining moment was performing it on Broadway in Nashville (technically from the back of an Uber, but the crowd still loved it so it counts, right?).
Jokes aside, my friends and family cannot listen to Piano Man anymore. Please feel free to reach out for parties/events…serious inquiries only.
What are you most passionate about?
I’d say I’m most passionate about learning and exploring. Whether it’s diving deeper into marketing and business, discovering new cultures, or challenging myself in new experiences, I love soaking up knowledge wherever I can.
Travel is a huge part of that curiosity. I’ve been lucky enough to visit places like Japan, the United Kingdom, Italy, and the Czech Republic, and I try to embrace each place fully, from the people to the food to the culture. For me, there’s nothing more exciting than seeing the world.
At the core, it’s all about growth. I focus on leaving no stone unturned, asking questions, and finding ways to do a little better every day. Whether it’s at work, in the gym, or on a new adventure, I’m constantly looking for ways to learn, improve, and expand my horizons.
What is the best part about working at Vovia?
Hands down, it’s the people. From day one, everyone has been welcoming, supportive and incredibly talented at what they do. It’s inspiring to work in an environment filled with these people, and as a bonus, it is so much fun.
