Carrie Bjola

I’m a wife, sister, auntie, mother, and an avid nature seeker with a home filled with the sounds of birds. My guilty pleasure is baked goodies, so keep that in mind if you need a favour. : )

I am driven by making meaningful connections – connecting people and ideas to a larger purpose and inspiring great things. Outside of work I enjoy the quiet moments for reading and nature in between the full-time job of cheering on (and chauffeuring) my kids at all their various sports and activities! 

I enjoy theatre, travel, and savouring life’s slow moments, whether taking an evening walk with my family or listening to familiar tunes on the radio stations; I once judged my parents for enjoying. Always looking for a sweet opportunity, I proudly excel at convincing colleagues to swap office meetings for ice cream shop gatherings.

I treasure the small moments, spending time with my family at my child’s sports events, tending to our garden, and adventuring outdoors together. From cheering at games to exploring nature, every moment with my loved ones is a cherished memory.

Beyanka is currently on leave and will return to her role at a later date.

I bring over five years of experience in administration and workplace safety. I’m known for being adaptable, dependable, and people-oriented – qualities that help me build strong relationships and keep things running smoothly behind the scenes. Outside of work, I’m passionate about exploring the world (20+ countries and counting!), dancing, staying active, and spending quality time with friends and family.

I am a firm believer in the idea that it is never too late to learn new things, set new goals, and see things from new angles. I love gardening, cooking, watching, hearing or reading great stories, walking my dogs, and going on road trips with my husband.

I’m a passionate advocate for all things safety and a lifelong learner. Born and raised in a small Saskatchewan town, I now call the Queen City home, where I’m raising three wonderfully inspiring children. Beyond work, I’m an avid reader and writer, having published a poetry collection and 2 children’s books (with more on the way!). I also enjoy singing lessons with my daughter, strumming the ukulele, and spending time with my family (including our two cats). Life is a beautiful adventure, and I do my best to enjoy every moment of it.

I’m an engineering mind with over a decade of experience in occupational health and safety, but my work has always been about people. Originally from India, I also lived and worked in Qatar before making Saskatchewan home.
Outside of work, you’ll usually find me travelling, practicing yoga and mindfulness (I’m a certified yoga teacher trained at the world’s oldest yoga school), reading Hodinkee or browsing WatchCrunch as a watch enthusiast, or capturing everyday moments through mobile videography. I’m always up for a good coffee and an even better conversation.

A Husband, father, and brother.

I bring over a decade of experience in executive operations, administration, and strategic human resource management, focused on driving program success, meticulous resource management, and building strong organizational infrastructure. I’m known for being adaptable, accountable, and highly proficient in strategic planning and translating executive vision into scalable, efficient day-to-day operations. Outside of work, I enjoy playing bass guitar, keyboard and spending my time with my wife and kids.

I’m a self-professed, unapologetic nerd. That’s my secret superpower. I bring an analytical brain and a creative streak to every brand and marketing strategy I build, because the best ideas need both sides working together.

When it’s warm enough, I soak up the outdoors: long walks, cycling, golf, you name it. Winter doesn’t slow me down either. I just trade the fresh air for a paintbrush, canvas and paints, or my guitar, and find a different kind of flow. For everything in between, you’ll find me in the kitchen, baking and cooking through whatever life throws my way.
