Please join us in welcoming Lynnee Jacks to the OCVA team!
Lynnee brings a diverse background spanning continents and industries to her new role as Industry Communications Coordinator.
Before returning to the West Coast, Lynnee lived in Iceland, where she pursued her master’s degree in community development. During her time there, she created the Westfjords Way Challenge, an ultra-endurance cycling race that served as a regional development tool, and worked on various other initiatives to promote cycling tourism in the coastal region of the Westfjords.
Lynnee is excited to contribute her creativity, development skills, and communications expertise to OCVA. She is especially passionate about identifying and working with communities’ opportunities to expand coastal economies sustainably. When she’s not at work, you can find her outdoors, exploring the coast by bike or snowboarding in the mountains.
