Shawna Russell

Director of Finance

Shawna has been  a friend and colleague of Shanon’s for the past 16 years and was deeply moved by the Tumbler Ridge tragedy. She feels it is an honour to support the legacy of Kylie along with all the kids and families impacted. Shawna brings over 25 years experience in the financial industry, currently in the role of Senior Financial Advisor.

​

Shawna was born and raised on Vancouver Island and she enjoys spending time with her family, friends and supporting her community.
Inspired by Kylie’s passion for art and her giving nature Shawna is committed in playing an active role with the foundation. She looks forward in seeing students that share the same love for the arts get gifted funds to use toward following their dreams, embracing life and their creative passions.
