Long before she was helping businesses find commercial space, she was learning what makes a space work for the people within it. 

Her career began in the food and beverage industry, including restaurant and bar management, where she developed a knack for customer service, relationship building, and facilitating the kind of experiences that turn customers into loyal regulars. She also honed skills in digital marketing, storytelling, and niche community building - skills that taught her how businesses build identity, connect with their audiences, and create environments people want to come back to.

Her foray into to commercial real estate began on the administrative side at a boutique CRE agency in Montreal. Working alongside experienced brokers, she learned the industry from the inside, gaining invaluable hands-on experience and mentorship from veterans of the field as she worked toward earning her broker’s license.

Now back home in Saskatchewan, she brings this collection of experiences with her to The Commercial Group, where she focuses on industrial and retail spaces. Coming back to Saskatoon also means getting to learn the landscape anew — rediscovering the lay of the land, parsing out the nuances between markets, and uncovering the opportunities and challenges that make this city so unique. 

Her approach is curious, candid, and people-first, grounded in notion that commercial real estate is about more than properties. It’s about the people who are trying to make something work - and helping them find the space where their business will thrive.
