Estevan Mercury Publications has announced the addition of Kimberlee Pushie to its staff as a sales representative.
Pushie previously worked at RE/Max Blue Chip Realty in the administrative department. Before that, she worked at Regens Disposal (now Green for Life Environmental), where she spent some time working in sales.
She knew Mercury sales manager Deanna Tarnes because Pushie’s oldest son and Tarnes’ older daughter went to school together, and Pushie and Tarnes discussed the job opening.
“It sounded like it would be a good experience, and it’s something I would be interested in doing,” said Pushie.
Pushie describes herself as a people person, and an opportunity like this, in which she is constantly talking to people, would be perfect for her.
She is looking forward to getting out into the community, meeting clients, talking to them and explaining to them how the Mercury can help them with their advertising needs, thanks to the fleet of papers that the Mercury has to offer, and through the newspaper’s website, www.estevanmercury.ca.
Pushie is originally from Surrey, B.C., and came to Estevan in 2000. She and her husband, Darren, have three boys: Colton, aged 13, Owen, 10, and Easton, eight. They reside on an acreage north of the city.
During the summer months, her family enjoys camping, golfing and other outdoor activities, and in the winter, they spend plenty of time at local arenas, as the three boys are all involved with minor hockey.
