Colleen has been the ABMI’s Program Manager since 2006. What started out as a short-term engagement has turned into a long-term commitment to the ABMI’s vision and mission. Working with such an enthusiastic and committed group of people has made her years with the ABMI fly by! Her days are spent managing all things corporate, supporting our Executive Director, and working with our Board of Directors and Members.

Colleen came to the ABMI from the Alberta government, where she worked with government and industry forest management specialists. Prior to that, she worked in both the private and not-for-profit sectors. She has a diverse employment history, with more than 20 years of experience in project and issues management, strategic communications consulting, emergency management, and planning and development services.
