Raised on a mixed grain and cattle farm in northern Saskatchewan, Jane earned a Bachelor of Commerce (B.Comm.) from the University of Saskatchewan in 2001.

I grew up on a mixed cattle/grain farm in north west Saskatchewan and went on to the U of S to obtain a Commerce degree. After convocation, I started working at Scotiabank in Saskatoon and had various roles over the 17 years I spent there, nearly all of which included dealing with Agriculture clients in a lending and advising capacity. I then switched careers and moved to MNP in 2017 into a Farm Program Manager role for a year and a half, then transitioned into the Farm Management Consulting role that I am currently in.
