Q: How did you get to where you are in the technology industry?
A: A fun fact about me is I graduated from the University of Saskatchewan with a marketing degree and spent my whole career in . So I started off, I did some travelling, and I came back and started working on an IT project. And I really never looked back. I’ve always been on the business side of IT. Which, if you think about marketing, you’ve got to be able to talk to the business, see what they need and translate that back to the to the technology folks. So that’s really how my career started. And 20-plus years later, I’m still here and loving it.Technology is becoming so important in mining. And if you think about what we’re trying to do here at BHP, is to have the world’s most digitally advanced potash mine.
And I think what I want to highlight is really finding that company that works for you. So BHP for me — I’ve got two young kids; I go to the ball games. I’m enabled to do that by flexible work. We have flexible and hybrid work, which I think is so key for women, whether you’re returning from maternity leave, or you’re just coming out of school and you’re balancing a lot of things in your life.
