LifeLabs has operated in Canada for nearly 50 years. It is a leading provider of laboratory testing and management services, contributing to the treatment and prevention of disease by enabling healthcare providers to operate more efficiently and effectively. Following the acquisition of BC Biomedical on April 2, 2013 and CML Healthcare on October 1st, 2013, LifeLabs nearly doubled in size, now providing more than 100 million diagnostic tests for approximately 19 million patients visits annually. Information from these tests plays a vital role in predicting, diagnosing, treating and monitoring disease. LifeLabs operates the largest community medical laboratory network in Canada, together with our hospital and healthcare partners. LifeLabs also partners with healthcare providers to transform and manage laboratory organizations to better meet the complex healthcare challenges of today and tomorrow.

A health care business leader who challenges the status quo finding better, faster and cost-effective solutions to everyday business problems. I help organizations recognize the need to change to ensure a sustainable future. With an innate curiosity in everything I do, I am known to break down problems to get to root cause, seek the facts and discover the truth. Sought out by colleagues to lead change, I have a reputation for welcoming challenges, resolving conflict and detecting problems before they occur. As a people leader and hiring manager, I have been building high performing teams since the beginning of my career and I have developed a keen eye for spotting the right candidate with the best fit for the job. I have a passion for helping people become aware of their skills and competencies and build their confidence with landing the right role for their career; and I don't hesitate to share my insider's scoop as a hiring manager. I led a multi million dollar healthcare business with a team of 1000 employees and a focus on improving financial performance; creating healthy and safe work environments; delivering high quality services and products for customers; mentoring and developing people; enhancing the environment; and contributing to the community. Specialities: business management, strategic planning, customer focus and service, risk management, government and public relations, and stakeholder engagement.
