Say hello to Lee 👋.

🏘️ Born and raised in Ottawa, and Lee comes from a large extended family where her gatherings are often so big they could be mistaken for a convention!

💞 Growing up in such a close-knit environment has given her a deep appreciation for community and connection, which she brings into both her personal and professional life.

📓Although responsible for our event management enterprise software, she is an analog person at heart with an addiction to pens, notebooks, and colour-coded lists!

🌎 One of her career highlights was the reopening of events post-COVID, ensuring a smooth transition during a critical period. This experience for her highlighted our team's ability to innovate under pressure, adapt to unmatched challenges, and support the successful reopening of events in a post-pandemic world.

Say hello to Chef Mat Séguin 👋.

👨‍🍳 Born in rural Québec in a small town called Farrellton, His culinary career began at 13 working in small family-owned restaurants after school. As a child and young adolescent, sitting still was challenging and his hands always seemed restless. For him, working in kitchens was the perfect cure for this!

⚡️ During a camping trip with his father as a young boy, they both survived being struck by lightning.

🏆 One of his career highlights was leading a team in a culinary competition in November 2023, with the full support of Executive Chef Turcot and the collaboration of his other talented and passionate chefs. He is incredibly proud of his team and grateful for the experience!

👏 Mat feels immense pride and gratitude seeing his teammates earn promotions. He loves witnessing those who have worked hard, been persistent, and risen to every challenge get rewarded for their efforts.
