Angie Hill has been part of the Kool Morning Crew in Kitchener Waterloo for 13 years now. The team of Angie Mark and Brian have been the number one show with adults under 50 for the past 6 years.

Although Angie has a diploma in print journalism from Conestoga College, she felt she fit into broadcasting a little bit better! She worked in London, and Owen Sound before landing here in the mecca of vegetable country. Because Angie was born and raised in a town of 1800 people, Chesley Ontario in Bruce County, living in the Tri-cities feels like a good match for her because it has the feeling of a huge small town.

Angie now lives in Elmira with Willie, 5-year-old son Jesse, and two dogs Chuck and Lulu.

Eleanor Nickerson
Eleanor Nickerson is a bio Writer, consultant, blogger and mother of two small children who strives against reality to have it all. By night she swigs wine from the bottle while she manages a mummy blog that reviews BC playgrounds, a non-mummy blog for stories and rants, and a writing resource.

By day she tries (fails) to eat sensibly and is a freelance Strategy and Human Resources Consultant. On the side, yes there is a "side" to all that, she paints, writes fiction, watches British TV shows and plays the harp.
Well actually she doesn't play the harp but it sounded good didn't it?

What I Learned At SUBWAY®

Lessons From Entrepreneur Fred DeLuca

by: Amy and Danielle
This week I had the opportunity to meet SUBWAY® Restaurants Co-founder and President Fred DeLuca for lunch in Toronto. Although I’ve enjoyed many SUBWAY® sandwiches over the years, I have to admit, I didn’t know much about Fred before this week. Fred might be the most wildly successful entrepreneur I'd never heard of. He also seems like a really great guy.
 
Did you know that Fred DeLuca opened his first restaurant at the age of 17?
