A graduate of the University of Waterloo Mathematics programmer, he used to be asked why a math major would be working in advertising; but with data, analytics, algorithms, data visualization now key drivers of marketing success, he must have been on to something early. He believes strongly that insight, strategy, ideas  and collaboration are  key to success  and that innovation and inspiration can come from anyone and anywhere.

A wanna be artist, sports lover, travel  junkie, long time suffering Toronto Maple Leafs fan, he somehow believes that one of Toronto’s teams will win a Championship this season. Or, maybe next year!

Candice has more than 14 years of experience in the media industry. As the SVP of Media Operations, Candice makes sure what goes on within these walls is efficient, effective, and progressive. ” It’s not just about ideas, it’s about making ideas happen.” As one of the original employees at True Media, she’s done it all, including mopping the floors a time or two. Prior to joining True Media, Candice was a marketing consultant for a large radio broadcasting company. 
   When she’s not “making things happen”, she enjoys spending time with her family, pretending she’s a host on the food network and spending time outdoors.

As a veteran in Human Resources, Caroline makes it her business to fully immerse herself in her company’s trade while bringing enthusiasm through the True Media doors.

Caroline ensures that every True Media employee over communicates, remains honest in work deadlines, successfully balances work, family, and community involvement, and works hard to keep growing a reputation for excellence.
