Bio
Todd Edwards
I first started working with Dawn in 1989 at Canadian Airlines in Toronto. It was clear from the beginning that Dawn had a talent for Airline management and the travel industry in general. She excelled in all her rolls at Canadian and later at Air Canada as well as at Maritz Travel. Dawn always considers the company and customer above all else. She has a keen sense of fairness and always seeks to find win win situations for all concerned. She has a strong focus on detail while always seeing the larger goals and objectives of every project she takes on. In my experience, Dawn is the consummate team player but is more than willing to step up to a leadership role when called upon. I would not hesitate to recommend Dawn for any position she were to apply for within her current work environment or in any new opportunities she may seek.
