Yvette is involved in Business Development activities with IGLOO Inc.- an innovative web 2.0 start-up specializing in On-demand Communities and Social Networking Solutions. The most recent project Yvette spearheaded for IGLOO was the Manufacturing Innovation Network (MIN) – an online knowledge exchange for Waterloo Region manufacturing companies which aims to assist manufacturers to Build Awareness, Foster Innovation and Compete Globally. When Yvette is not assisting associations, organizations, schools and corporations in developing and deploying their online community solution, she enjoys reading, movies, golf, fishing and spending time with her family.

I joined The KWCF in April of 2007 as the first ever Marketing & Communications staff person. My other major responsibility is to manage Waterloo Region's Vital Signs - report card on the quality of life in Waterloo Region. On the volunteer side, I am the Oktoberfest Chair for the A Blooming Affair Fashion Show and teach for Junior Achievement. My "menagerie" at home consists of a husband, twin daughters, 2 dogs, a cat and a fish.
