Getting to Know: Jeanette Neufeld

Hi, I’m Jeanette! I’m the person to email for website updates, newsletter content and to share any interesting info about yourself or department activities. I’d also be happy to take your profile photo for our website!

I’ve worked in the department since October 2022, and really enjoyed my time getting to know everyone here. A big highlight is emceeing the annual banquet each year.

My background is in media – I hold a Bachelor of Journalism degree from the University of Regina and was a reporter for both CBC Radio and The Saskatoon StarPhoenix. Before joining the department, I worked in communications for the Western College of Veterinary Medicine (WCVM), a job that had many parallels to human medicine but with a much cuter patient population.

Outside of work I spend most of my time taking care of my two young children. We enjoy family bike rides and time at the lake, either boating or snowmobiling depending on the season.
