Hello BOOM! family! My name is Jessica Houghton and it’s been a while since I’ve worked with you all, because I’ve been quite busy. For the past three months, I have been working with my dance studio, Pegsus Studios, to put together their annual benefit concert, Dances of Offering. I have been performing, choreographing, and helping out with this show since it was first put on 10 years ago. This year I am helping to organize the social media and online efforts that go into the planning and promotion of the show. I’d love to share with you what this show is all about and encourage you to come out and enjoy an evening of dance with us!

A big congratulations and Mo-felt THANK YOU for making it through another Movember. Truly some Mo-nificient efforts this year. A special thanks to all those who joined ‘Team 6Mo’degrees’ for our best year to date. We surpassed last year’s fundraising by $4,000 and exceeded this year’s goal by $2,000 – our accomplishment currently sits at $12,000 raised for Movember Canada!!!!

What do BOOM!, Pete Bombaci and a 15 foot giant moustache have in common? The ability to change the face of men’s health! Recently, Pete, head of Movember Canada, and Eddie Carolan of SoftSigns, stopped by the office with a GIANT 15 foot moustache to share some Movember spirit.

For the few short weeks I’ve been in Toronto, I’ve been asked this series of questions more than a handful of times: ‘Your boss is Michael Andretti? So, you know him?’ These questions are usually posed by one of the many motorsports fans living in this lovely Canadian city. Michael Andretti is typically recognized for his amazing driving career and ownership of Andretti Autosport, an INDYCAR team based out of Indianapolis, IN. However, a recent addition to his current list of recognizable accomplishments is the launch of Andretti Sports Marketing which is coincidentally the same reason I’ve found myself in this fair city.

There are less than 2 weeks left in this glorious month known as Movember, and it has once again been amazing!

A few weeks back, we posted a piece on the Women In Leadership (WIL) luncheon that our President, Nicole Gallucci, hosted. The audience was engaged, entertained and empowered by the captivating speakers whose personalities and experience spanned the professional landscape. The passwords they shared motivated the audience to think about what passwords help unlock their own personal and professional success. We are proud to present you the recap video from the event… please check out the link below.
