Sales
Can't believe it, but it's now been over 20 years of time spent with Pines PSM. I enjoyed working in the parts & service department, learning the basics of the business while getting familiar with all of BRP's outstanding products. I was promoted to Sales Manager afterwards as my interest continued to grow for the power sports lifestyle. I enjoy meeting new customers from around Saskatchewan & Canada. As each season passes through out the years, I love seeing my customer's make lasting memories on all the different BRP products I've sold them. I spend my most of time off hunting, fishing and exploring Saskatchewan's vast recreational areas by boat, ATV and sleds!

Dana was born in Prince Albert and moved to Nipawin with her family when they decided to open up a lumber yard, now a RONA. After 23 years in the banking industry, she decided to venture out into a different career and joined the Pines Team. Being a BRP rider her entire life, it seemed a perfect fit. Dana enjoys all power sports as well as fishing in both seasons at Candle Lake and Deschambeault. She’s happy to be on board with Pines PSM!
