Our Team
Reinira
Career coach
I have lived in the Bow Valley since 2004 and in Canmore since 2011.
I have held many different positions in the hospitality industry from dishwashing to front office, to housekeeping, conference services and human resources and I have to say being a career coach is my favourite job yet!
One of my main values in life, work and personal, is to remain curious; curious about other people and their experiences, curious about learning more, and curious about how I can have a positive impact on other peoples lives. Staying curious about other people and their experiences has been the reason I have enjoyed being a Career Coach for the last 5 years and why I am not tired of it yet.
Being a big Brene Brown fan I will share two of my favorite quotes by her. “Courage over comfort” and “Clear is kind and unclear is unkind.” These are some of the things I try to remember and live by in my work life but also in my personal life.
Sierra
Manager
I’ve been lucky to call this area home for the past 2.5 years, although I’ve spent over 5 years exploring the beautiful province of Alberta. With over 12 years of management experience under my belt, I bring a unique perspective to the Job Resource Centre. As a career coach, I genuinely love helping our clients grow and reach their full potential.
One of the things I enjoy about working at the JRC is the incredible variety of clients we get to assist. Each person brings their own aspirations and challenges, and being able to make a difference in their lives is truly rewarding. What brings me joy is helping clients find a meaningful connection between their skills, interests, and career aspirations. It’s all about finding a path that resonates with them on a personal and professional level. Witnessing the spark of fulfillment and satisfaction when a client discovers a career that aligns with their values and brings them purpose is what brings meaning to my work.
Oh, and here’s a fun tidbit about me – I’m an avid explorer of the great outdoors! Every year, I cover over 1000km of trails in the area. If you’re in need of hiking or ski touring recommendations, just ask! I’d be thrilled to share my favorite spots with you.
Jill
Career coach
I have been living in this area for over 10 years. I am acquainted with the local community and have developed a strong understanding of its dynamics. During my previous work experience, I had the opportunity to work closely with a diverse range of clients. This experience equipped me with a versatile skill set and the ability to adapt quickly to new challenges, which can greatly benefit our clients at the JRC. The work I do at the JRC aligns with my core values of making a positive impact on society and continuously striving for personal and professional development. One of my favorite quotes that inspires me is by Albert Einstein: “In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity.” I find it both humorous and profound, as it reminds me to embrace challenges as opportunities for growth and innovation. It serves as a constant reminder to approach obstacles with a positive mindset and seek creative solutions.

Katie
Employer Services Coordinator
I have lived in the Bow Valley for 9 months and have really enjoyed my time here so far!
My previous work experience within the realm of career support was mainly working with university students to prepare them for the workplace, securing co-op positions, identifying next steps after education and working on application documents.
I enjoy being the first ‘welcome to the Bow Valley’ that many newcomers receive and being able to provide not only job search support, but provide suggestions on connecting our clients to the local communities!
A quote from my dad that always reminds me it’s never too late to try something new or start a new adventure – “I still don’t know what I want to be when I grow up!”.

I have been a resident of the beautiful Bow Valley for nearly three years. Since relocating, I embraced the stunning surroundings and welcoming community that make the area truly special. Before joining the Job Resource Centre (JRC), I worked as a Careers Advisor in schools. This experience equipped me with a deep understanding of the challenges individuals face when navigating career choices and job opportunities. I honed my skills in guiding and supporting students through their career journeys, ensuring they were equipped with the knowledge and confidence to pursue their aspirations. My expertise in career advising, combined with my empathetic approach, enables me to connect with clients at the JRC on a personal level, making me a valuable resource for anyone seeking career guidance.
