Chief Executive Officer
I lead the team of experienced, compassionate and committed people who work with thousands of clients every year to help them get out of debt. My early career was in marketing at Procter & Gamble. Then I moved to business journalism as an anchor at BNN Bloomberg. But I found my true passion for helping people get a handle on their money as a financial coach and workshop leader, author of two bestselling books, and as a Money Columnist for Cityline, CBC Radio and MoneySense.
My husband and I are proud parents to a teen, and in my spare time, I love to hike, cook, and watch Schitt’s Creek on Netflix. (Plus, I have a ridiculous memory for Broadway musical trivia. Try me.)
Chief Financial Officer
I’m a mother of three (if we count my Britany Spaniel), an amateur baker and an experienced CPA in the non-profit sector. I joined Credit Canada to help support the organization’s financial health and stability, ensure regulatory compliance, and provide transparent reporting to its stakeholders.
I love spending time with my adult children (and their dogs), watching The Bachelor and creating spreadsheets.
Director of Sponsorships
With over 15 years of experience in sponsorship and fundraising, I've had the privilege of working across the arts, environment, education, and healthcare. I'm thrilled to combine this expertise with a deep interest in personal finance at Credit Canada. I believe financial literacy is a powerful tool, and I'm committed to working with partners who help us empower Canadians to get out of debt and back into life.
Beyond work, I enjoy a good coffee and pastry at a cafe, learning the art of gardening, and a well-deserved binge of Gilmore Girls.
Director of Counselling and Client Services
I joined Credit Canada because I am passionate about helping people and providing high-quality service. My extensive background in finance/banking and the charity sector provides me with the perfect mix of experience and enthusiasm needed to optimize the journey of getting people out of debt and back into life.
In my free time, I enjoy travelling with my husband, anything from a short weekend road trip to flying to the other side of the world… Some of our recent adventures have included trips to Prince Edward County and Bali!
A few of my favourite things are live music, NFL football, pinball and trying new restaurants.
Director of IT and Business Analysis
I’m the Director of IT & Business Analysis. I’ve been with Credit Canada for 20+ years working in various roles in Project Management and IT. I’m proud to work for a company that considers itself Canada’s leader in credit counselling, transforming the way people use credit.
I enjoy B-movies and Hardboiled crime fiction, nightly walks, working out at the gym, and growing vegetables in my garden.
Manager of Financial Coaching and Education
I am the Manager of Financial Coaching and Education. I started my career in credit counselling in 1997. For 21 of those years, I worked as a credit counsellor with the Niagara agency, and in 2018, I moved into the Executive Director position. In 2019, I joined Credit Canada, where I returned to credit counselling for a year, and in 2020, I moved into the position of Project Manager. As a counsellor, I truly appreciated being able to counsel individuals to get out of debt and get back to life.
I have an incredible blended family and love spending time with them. I enjoy running, reading, and secretly watching sci-fi and Marvel movies.
Director of Marketing
I am a marketing and communications professional with 16+ years of experience. After many years supporting Canadian for-profit businesses, I combined my passion for volunteerism with marketing and shifted into the non-profit world. In my role as Director of Marketing for Credit Canada, I am committed to ensuring that Canadians know that our team can offer them the support they need to get out of debt and back into life.
I love visiting Costa Rica, where I hope to eventually spend 6 months a year (if I can ever convince my husband). For now, I enjoy swimming, doing bad karaoke, volunteering, and spending every possible moment with my 3 young kids.
Counselling and Client Services Operations Manager
I’m the Counselling & Client Services Operations Manager at Credit Canada. I'm a non-profit operational specialist with over ten years of experience across various roles and organisations. Over the years, I’ve managed multi-million-dollar healthcare programs, built and improved program operations from the ground up, and led people operations across three different countries.
Outside of work, I’m an Irish/Cypriot transplant from the UK, so I spend way too much time drinking tea and talking football (the real kind). I’m a fan of cinematic blockbusters, hard-hitting dramas, and fantasy shows, and I’m always up for exploring new cultures through travel or food. I’m a proud dog-dad to Nanouk, who keeps life full of energy and fur, and a plant-dad to more monsteras than is probably practical.
Counselling Manager
I’m a father of 2 teenagers and married to the love of my life. I entered the world of Credit Counselling to help people not only get out of debt but also assist them in achieving their financial dreams. I have over 15 years of experience in the financial industry and am very passionate about what I do. I have helped thousands of clients over the years in terms of consolidating their debts, budgeting their spending, and educating them on how to recover from some of their past financial challenges.
I enjoy travelling with my family, going to the gym & reading ancient history in my free time.
Manager, Finance and Administration
I’m a mother of 3 boys and I have a wonderful husband and a standard poodle. My passion has always been to help people in different aspects of their life. Working in the finance departments of numerous charities has brought me on my journey to Credit Canada. I joined Credit Canada to help people get out of debt and get back into life.
I enjoy exercising, reading, hiking with my dog, and spending time with my family and friends.
Digital Marketing Manager
I’m Credit Canada’s Digital Marketing Manager and have been with the agency since 2021. I have previously worked as a digital marketing specialist across various industries, including sports and telecom. My purpose in life has always been to help those in need, and I am fulfilling that purpose through my work here at Credit Canada. I truly believe in and am committed to our mission of helping people get out of debt and get back to life.
In my spare time, you’ll always find me outdoors exploring local food joints, making memories with my husband, and going for long walks. I have a beautiful cat named Timothy, who is my pride and joy, and I spend most of my time chasing after him for cuddles.
Digital Delivery Manager
I’m an experienced digital project manager with a passion for the technologies and innovations that enable transformational change, both for organizations and the people we serve. I have an extensive background in digital fundraising and platform implementation for various local and national nonprofits. I'm committed to ensuring that people get the support they need at all stages of their journey out of debt.
I enjoy travelling and taking road trips, and in my free time you'll find me knitting and trying new crafts and other hobbies (most recently quilting). I'm also heavily involved with/volunteer in Toronto's arts and theatre scenes, and you'll catch me at many shows and events throughout the season.
Communications Manager
I’m an experienced communications manager who enjoys developing creative content, crafting compelling storytelling, and highlighting unique perspectives that promote connection and community. I’ve worked in various industries, from government to television production, always with a commitment to delivering value with heart. I first entered the world of non-profit credit counselling to help people achieve their personal goals through financial knowledge and community support.
As a certified yoga teacher and Barre instructor, I have a passion for health and wellness. I love the outdoors, the beach is my happy place, and I’m a firm believer in divine timing, good vibes, and financial empowerment.

I manage our team of fabulous Credit Counsellors, keeping them motivated to help people get out of debt and back into life. I’m also an experienced Credit Counsellor and have helped thousands of clients consolidate their debts and successfully manage their finances.
