Nancy in real life
What keeps you busy outside of work?
As an empty nester, I’ve pivoted from helping with kids’ activities and being a hockey mom to book clubs, traveling, and doing more yoga!
What makes you tick?
My parents owned a small business, so watching them build and grow that business sparked my entrepreneurial spirit. I love finding ways to develop efficiencies and provide the best service to grow a business.
How do you give back?
I sit on a board of a local nonprofit that serves our community by meeting basic needs and equipping households for ongoing stability. I love the idea of starting local and then seeing it pay forward.
