Amanda is always the first to volunteer her time, skills and knowledge to any project that comes up. She is dedicated to her job and eagerly takes extra responsibilities to further her knowledge and skills. She has the ability to motivate and lead staff, create and implement new policies and streamline processes.

May 2013 - Feb 2017
As a result of previous personnel management experience, I successfully led a team of dedicated recreation professionals, delivering quality programs and services to residents and visitors in the service area. The service area includes the communities of Hope, Boston Bar, Yale, Spuzzum, Sunshine Valley and Laidlaw and approximately nine local First Nations Bands. RCAS facilities include a Recreation Centre in Hope (comprised of an arena, conference centre, fitness centre, fitness rooms and aquatic centre), an outdoor pool in North Bend, and emergency landing strip in Boston Bar and an aerodrome in Hope. As the Assistant Manager, reporting to the Director of Recreation & Cultural Services, I oversaw the efficient planning, coordination and delivery of Recreation, Culture & Airpark Services programs and services. Further, I drafted budgetary reports, policy documents and strategic planning materials for boards, committees and the Recreation, Culture and Airpark Services Commission.
