Mandie Hoidas

Company

Vaughan's Horticulture

Job Title

Senior Business Systems Analyst/Master Data Manager

Accomplishments

Obtained her Certified Supply Chain Professional certificate, which “really tested how well I could transition back into ‘student’ mode during my evenings and weekends.”
In her first year with the company, hired more than 20 people, which more than doubled the customer service department, to align with the growth strategy for the company.

Extracurricular

She Can Stretch a Dollar: “I’ve recently gotten into the phenomenon of, I’ll call it, semi-extreme digital couponing for household products.” It allows her to donate items that she pays little to nothing for to a local church.

Fun Facts

She’s a Voracious Reader: Reading has always been a huge passion of Mandie’s. In 2021, she wanted to read at least 200 books. She read 203! “The library is a dear friend!”
