To my dearest Mentor, Amy

Being a protégé of Amy has been one of the most transformative experiences of my professional journey.

From the very first meeting, Amy’s warmth, wisdom, and unwavering support turned my uncertainties into confidence. Coming from an engineering background and stepping into the world of human resources in Canada felt daunting, but Amy’s guidance made this transition possible and truly rewarding.


She witnessed every step of my journey, from seeking my first HR role with hope and uncertainty to the unforgettable moment when I secured a position in the field I now deeply love. Amy’s ability to combine her professionalism with genuine care created a mentorship space where I felt valued, supported, and empowered to ask questions, learn, and grow.


Her encouragement and belief in me were pivotal in shaping my path, and every session with her became a source of inspiration and excitement. Amy, you are more than a mentor—you are a role model, an inspiration, and a key part of my success story.



Thank you, CPHR Alberta, for this incredible mentorship program, which transforms lives and creates opportunities for growth and connection. This program is more than guidance—it’s a symbol of hope and inclusion, empowering us to bring the best of our skills, experiences, and perspectives to build a brighter future in HR.
