She recognizes that projects both big and small require the same level of attention, her key objective, while she strives to achieve the moments when all stakeholders’ goals are met beyond expectation.
With a passion for digital life, Debby hails from the video production industry and has a proven record of success with over 20 years as a post-production maven; she created and edited dynamic digital content that infused brand messaging with a sense of purpose and utility. Her solid web content and advertising chops add to her portfolio of core competencies.
Beyond fulfilling her Yardstick duties, you’re apt to find Debby dining with friends or family, spending time with Burleigh, her English springer spaniel, and cleaning up after her kids. When Debby’s not glued to her laptop, she’s likely dispensing a dose of her unfailing humour and having a good laugh. And no one can make her laugh harder than her sister, Jenn.
