Meet the Team

We’re called People Over Phones for a reason. Everything we do is rooted in the creativity, compassion and celebration that comes from being people-first. Our leadership team (who you will often see hosting shows) is located across Canada, supporting our national presence and ensuring the success of your POP shows.

What makes you POP?
“I’m a big movie buff. One year, I saw over 100 movies in theatres. A few favourites are Chef, The Martian, any Spider-Man film, and Oceans 11. I love when I get to play a trivia night that I didn’t write.”
