Cathy has an extensive background in advertising and media planning, but currently the common thread is community connections. When not minute-taking, she works locally with independent business owners and contributes to social service agencies serving vulnerable sectors (children, seniors with dementia, and those with accessibility needs). In her free time, Cathy enjoys getting together regularly with her family. Cathy believes that, as a minute taker, one needs to be adaptable no matter the context, be a keen listener, and be naturally inquisitive in this world full of interesting people and topics!
