Career Story
I went directly from high school into the workforce. This was a common path when I graduated (1983), unlike today. I started a job at a long term care home, with my current company in 1988 in the role of receptionist. I realized very quickly that I would like to start a career in this sector.
I expressed my interest in continuing to grow and develop, and had the good fortune of being part of a very supportive organization. I have held roles with increasing responsibility in my 33 years with Revera. These include:
- Receptionist
- Office Manager
- Environmental Services Manager
- Executive Director
- Operations Support Director
- Regional Director
- Vice President, Operations (current)
In addition to change in positions, I have also pursued education opportunities since starting with my organization. These include:
- HR certification (Conestoga College)
- Administrator certification (Canadian Healthcare Association)
- Gerontology Degree (Ryerson University)
