Biography of the presenter

In 2004 Stella relocated to Timmins Ontario and started her career path in mining. During that time, she joined a Mining Manufacturing and Distributing company as an Account Manager. Over the next four years she was able to work her way from the ground up, laying a strong foundation for a career in mining. Stella was drawn to mining and supply service sector due to its prevalence in Timmins, but stayed with it due to the supportive culture of innovation and growth she saw available to her in the field. Her experience led her to Sudbury Ontario where she began her career with MacLean Engineering in 2008 as an Account Manager for Northern Ontario. She has since held roles including Aftermarket Manager and Operations Manager, General Manager before being appointed to Vice President of Sales & Support for Northern ON. In her role as Vice President she is responsible for the strategic direction of sales growth, business development and aftermarket support. Under Stella’s leadership the focus is heavily centered on team collaboration that drives exceptional performance and delivers outstanding customer service, quality products and solutions. Stella is a board member for Science North and a past director of Women in Mining Northern ON, a not-for-profit organization that creates awareness and provides opportunities for mentoring women in mining, mineral exploration and support services. It is her belief that all women in the mining industry have a personal responsibility to encourage other women to understand the benefits of entering non-traditional roles. Stella is a proud member of the mining community and wants to share her passion and encourage all women to consider a career in mining. She feels it is a tremendous industry to be a part of, with a diverse range of career opportunities.
