About Lena!

October 2, 2008 By Lena

Lena, a WAHM of two feisty little boys, is a writer, social media enthusiast and authentic shopaholic. In fact, if it’s on sale – she’s already bought it.

She started her blog, Listen to Lena!, as a way of communicating the best finds to friends and family, but as she continued to blog, it was not long before an old passion was reignited – writing. And so her site evolved to focus on her love of creative writing and includes product reviews and features, humorous takes on parenthood and her famous random rants. In 2010, Lena was name Best Blog and Best Family Blog at the Canadian Blog Awards and is consistently ranked as one of the highest trafficked blogs in Toronto.

Lena has extensive experience partnering with brands and has been recognized as one of Canada’s top digital women. Now a Community Manager with ShesConnected Multimedia Corp., she enthusiastically uses her skills and knowledge to help elevate women’s presence and influence in social media.
