She’s a business owner, community builder, and lifelong volunteer, recognized with several awards. Today, she’s deeply rooted in family business through Fifendekel Pie Shop Cafes, and the companies Experience Alberta and ThreeSixty Alberta two rural focused businesses that evolved from her passion for rural, particularly rural tourism, where she believes the real magic happens:building community, connection, and possibility—often from gravel roads and big ideas.
