Our team

Olivia Canlas
Co-Founder & Chief Executive Officer

Aside from serving as meowbox's head of opurrations, Olivia is a world traveller, aspiring polyglot, and cat mom to office mischief-makers Zac and Harvey. She never turns down ketchup chips or a good theme party.

Francois Deschenes
Co-Founder & Chief Technology Officer

Francois is a foodie and whiskey lover who founded his first business in 1996. He’s since become a digital nomad, combining his entrepreneurial spirit and passion for travel.

Leah de Roy
Social Media & Content Manager

Leah is cat mom to two Montreal rescues, Louie and Beatrice. An introvert at heart, she finds the most joy in curling up with a good book and a cup of coffee, drawing, or hunting for thrift finds.

Emma Waddell
Customer Operations Manager

Emma has loved and been a cat mom her whole life and spends most of her down time with her two kitty babies, Cheese and Louise. When she’s not hanging out with her cats and husband you can find her enjoying cocktails, going to concerts, watching movies and eating too much chocolate. A collector magpie at heart she can’t be trusted around shoes, handbags or anything that sparkles.

Nicole Noel-Matheson
Bookkeeper

A cat lover who can't have cats, Nicole is a bird mom to conure parrot, Rio. She enjoys volunteering and hanging out in the sun with a good book and a cocktail.

Madeleine Belanger
Community Manager

Madeleine is a feminist and illustrator of felines (@madeleineillustration on Instagram). She has fostered over 50 cats and kittens, but bottle-feeding orphans is her favourite! She will have you over for the best waffles you'll ever eat.

Casey Chun
Graphic Designer

Casey started her career in architecture before finding her calling in design. She loves seeking out the best local dessert shops, watching Unsolved on YouTube, and making fun travelling videos. She has two small poodles, Swiss and Penny, and a robo hamster named Taro.

Flora Brodie
Concept Artist

Flora has spent the last 5 years in the pet industry producing pet products and package design. She is free-spirited and adventurous at heart. You can find her camping, hiking, biking, swimming and boating along the BC coast in the summer and skiing in the winter. She really loves socializing and going out to shows to dance and pawty. In her downtime she snuggles up with her cat step-son Winston to watch crime shows and trashy reality TV.

Lee Alexander
Photographer

Lee is a photographer with a particular passion for landscape and drone photography. He’s traveled all over the world but his favourite countries to visit are Italy and Bali. His secret (now not-so-secret) dream is to master the drums someday.

Jacquie Mangialardi
Product & Supply Chain Manager

Some of Jacquie’s obsessions include her kitties Hubert and Hannah, a good routine, and cute stationery. She also loves coffee, wine (in no particular order) and home decor and gardening, though she is a self-proclaimed amateur at both.

Tanya McKay
Marketing Manager

Tanya is a donut enthusiast who loves a good impromptu dance party with her niece (which can, and do happen anywhere). She recharges her batteries by watching true crime documentaries, having cooking nights, delving into a fantasy or sci-fi novel, or snuggling her house tiger, Fry.

Harvey
Co-Chief Feline Officer

Harvey has come a long way since his days as a starving, flea-covered orphan abandoned in a ditch. When he isn't starring in meowbox campaigns, his daily tasks include keeping keyboards warm, supurrvising, and stealing bites of the humans' food. (His favourite snack? Avocado).

Zac
Co-Chief Feline Officer

Zac has been best buds with Harvey since they were foster babies. While he's more camera-shy than his brother, he excels at fitting into the smallest boxes, seeing ghosts, and summoning individual nuggets of kibble out of the automatic feeder.
