Recognized for her innovative leadership and dedication to promoting sustainability at Deloitte, Jacqueline co-leads our Green Champions Network, a grassroots community committed to advancing eco-friendly practices within and beyond Deloitte.

As a co-lead and past regional representative for the Prairies, she helps cultivate a culture of environmental consciousness within Deloitte and engages regional representatives to collaborate for deeper, measurable impacts. By broadening the program’s reach and boosting the power of its sustainability initiatives, Jacqueline’s solutions are helping to build a more sustainable future for all.
