So far, what’s your proudest accomplishment in 2019?

Submitting our department’s complete fiscal year 2020 budget.  Phew.

Valentines Day is in February. What do you “love” about your job

Every day is different and a chance to learn something new.

(Complete the sentence) Before I die I want to…

Live abroad or go on extended travel vacations.

10 Year Challenge! What were you doing in 2009? How did it help you reach your current position?

I owned a vintage retail clothing store. I also managed an electrical service company part time, which included answering and booking service calls, managing a team of three electricians, and paying invoices daily. Through this experience I learned to prioritize my efforts and be ready for anything the day might throw.

(Complete the sentence) The first time I heard about ELGL was…

…in an email from a coworker (Catharine Bennett). 🙂

What question should we have asked? 

What’s your biggest challenge so far in 2019? Managing our capital and operating budget with old software, and mining data from an old DOS system.
