Bio
Sameer Somal, CFA, CFP®, CAIA
I have had the good fortune of collaborating with Jade and her CFA Calgary & Edmonton societies over the past five years. As a regular speaker at events globally, I can say in earnest that she is one of the best event planners I have ever met. Her attention to detail, how she motivates her team and her acute sense of responsibility define her agreeable leadership style. Jade’s versatility was on display during the COVID pandemic when she effortlessly shifted priorities and education mandates to virtual. Having worked with many conferences and CFA Societies, she is one of the best I have ever met. Our team often seeks her counsel for our own events at Girl Power Talk and Blue Ocean Global Technology. Through her radiating personality and refined sense of humor, Jade has become a cherished friend.
Joanna Walewski, MBA
I had the opportunity to work with Jade through the Canadian Pension and Benefits Institute. Jade was the Administrator for our organization, which included keeping a group of volunteers organized and on track, and organizing seminars and conferences. Jade was always on top of things, organized, professional, and kept everything running smoothly. We could always rely on Jade to make sure all the details of our events were taken care of. I would highly recommend Jade to any person or organization looking for event planning assistance.
