Jenna Gillies '03
Excerpt from Fall 2017 issue of The Link:
Last year, Jenna Gillies ’03 returned to CDS as a guest speaker for the Grade 10 Careers class. As a partner at Ewing Morris & Co., a private equity firm in Toronto with over $250 million in assets, Jenna was able to share many insights from her career. She also shared some stories about how she discovered her path.
“I remember being in Grade 11 and talking to Leanne Sharpe ’03 after her Accounting class took a trip to the Toronto Stock Exchange,” recalls Jenna. “One of the presenters said that the reason she got her job was that she had attended the Richard Ivey School of Business at Western. That’s when I knew what I wanted to do.”

Land Acknowledgment
The Country Day School wishes to recognize and acknowledge the land on which the school operates. Our nearest Indigenous Nations are now the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and the Chippewas of Georgina Island. The Dish with One Spoon Wampum covenant is often cited as an example of the shared responsibility for caring for these lands among the Huron-Wendat, Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee peoples who would call these their traditional territories. CDS respects the relationship with these lands and recognizes that our connection to this land can be strengthened by our continued relationship with all First Nations, by acknowledging our shared responsibility to respect and care for the land and waters for future generations.
