As Partner, Group Benefits & Insurance at Pender & Howe, Flora brings more than 15 years of group benefits experience.
She combines a trusted advisor’s insight with an entrepreneurial drive, helping C-suite leaders in the not-for-profit and corporate sectors build benefits plans that support their people and their business. Clients value her for her knowledge, professionalism, and genuine investment in their success.
Flora excels at turning sales data into clear insights that support sound decisions. Her strong interpersonal skills, political acumen, and business sense make her an effective partner at the executive table.
She began her career as a pharmacy technician at a Toronto teaching hospital, then explored nearly every facet of the industry, from dispensing, pharmaceutical purchasing, sales analysis in big pharma, and provided data analytics and technology solutions at a global life sciences company to pharmaceutical companies. This depth of knowledge allows her to speak with authority on the health and wellness side of a group benefits plan.
Outside of work, Flora is happiest by the seaside, where the sight and sound of the waves are refreshing to her. She is an avid baseball fan, loves great music, and enjoys sharing a good meal with family and friends.
