Who We Are
Get to ‘LoKnow’ Us
Our vision is for everyone to access, benefit from, and love the vast world of digital advertising.
Values
Our values shape how we interact with our people, vendors, clients and partners.
At the core of our values, we prioritize trust — something that is built both ways. We hold trust in our people, and partners as experts in their unique fields. These values are shaped by our own people — created collectively. You’ll encounter them on a daily basis, at every stage you interact with us.
Through living these values, we aspire to be exceptionally good at what we do.
Empowering & Autonomous
In all positions, we allow each other to excel independently in our own domains. We’re eager to hone our crafts quickly, and entrust others with the space to do so. We continue to expand our knowledge and look for ways to make an impact.
Supportive & Accountable
Everyone has a part to play in our collective wins. When we complete our work with pride and care, we support our peers to do the same. We’re accountable to each other — helping where we can, speaking up where we can, and taking care of what’s in our hands.
Flexible & Fun
We’re not attached to rigid ways of working. We understand that flexibility means different things to different people, and leave room for others to do what makes sense for them. We have fun with our everyday interactions — we show up to work as ourselves, and are likely to have a few laughs before diving into business.
Curious & Progressive
Curiosity is something we share — we’re eager to learn, create, and discover things firsthand. We’re naturally inquisitive, and exploration is a key part of what helps us evolve. We put what we learn to the test, and refine our process with ongoing experimentation.
Compassionate & Honest
We are people first, and embrace the human elements of working together. We show each other honesty with empathy, and compassion with sincerity. We hold respect above all, which means we don’t shy away from challenges brought to our attention. We seek to listen and understand, and create a space where Knowers and those we work with feel heard.

- At the helm of Know Company is Vikram Seth, a visionary constantly discovering new ways to break barriers as Know Company’s Founder and CEO. Recognizing the widespread need for a forerunner in new ways of targeted advertising, Vik founded LoKnow – the first business that kicked off the Know Company umbrella of brands – to be that industry leader. Vik’s experience goes back many years, having previously headed a national student advertising company known for servicing universities as far back as 2013.

Vik’s innate wonder for novelty keeps him well-read, well-watched and well-travelled. He finds balance between trying every new restaurant in Calgary and frequenting the same spot a million times! When he’s not in the office, you can find him reading the daily news, keeping up with new music, shows and movies.

- Cerise Eugenio
- VP - Finance & Administration
- Imagine the Monopoly man, now make him a woman in a fancy crystal studded black tux, add in a cherry red cape and that is Cerise for you! Here’s why. Cerise has always had her eyes on the cash. She’s naturally had a keen interest in managing money at a very early age and that is exactly what she does today. As the VP of Finance & Administration, Cerise brings more than 10 years of industry experience in the realm of finance, operations, administration and executive management. Why the cherry red cape you ask? Because she’s like a superhero with her genuine willingness to help save the day in the best way she can. All the while being equipped with the technical skills, professional credentials as a Chartered Professional Accountant, Certified Management Accountant, and Certified Fraud Examiner. Her outgoing nature has granted her the title “The Glue”! That’s because Cerise’s house became the hub for many social gatherings amongst her friends. She’s passionate about bringing people of different personal and professional backgrounds together and has been integral in helping them make connections as well. With the network she’s built, she’s fostered a strong supportive environment where encouraging everyone to reach their full potential is not uncommon.

- Cam Sullivan
- VP - Business Development
- An outdoor enthusiast through and through, Cam is an avid hiker, runner, snowboarder, wakeboarder and mountain biker. He’s been involved in three avalanches, two Death Races and even caught a fish once while wakeboarding. How this guy is still alive, we’re not quite sure. It could be due to his eternal optimism. Cam always wakes up on the right side of the bed and might just be the friendliest guy you’ve ever met. He’ll converse with you for hours on any topic, including how to find the best lighting for nature photography, how to rebuild your car’s engine—he rebuilt his first when he was 14—or even the finer details of particle physics and quantum field theory. Cam has an MBA from Queens where he won multiple internal and external case studies, and also studied in Hong Kong while a University of Alberta student working on his BCom in Marketing and Business Law. Cam’s passion for life, learning, adventure—and fast cars—follows him from home to the office. He’ll always go the extra mile when it comes to client care and won’t stop working until every part of a campaign is race-ready.
- Adam Riedlhuber
- Director - Solutions & Sales
- Adam Riedlhuber
- Director - Solutions & Sales
- Adam is a natural bundle of energy on our team of Knowers. Lethbridge-born and raised, Adam’s background began in Urban Studies, where his strategic thinking and ability to see the bigger picture groomed him into the wealth of knowledge he is today. Through his journey, he’s always pictured himself joining the hustle and bustle of “the big city” and living on the Red Mile. Eventually both happened and Adam found himself at LoKnow! As cliche as it sounds, Adam loves living an active lifestyle. Unquestionably an outdoors person, Adam enjoys everything from golfing, volleyball and running, to cycling, backcountry skiing, and even wake surfing. Although, his affinity for outdoor sports somehow transferred into a love for 10 pin bowling (currently seeking a local roster spot)! Adam is an office wanderer, not often found behind his desk - when he’s not starting the day with a morning workout, he’s ending it with some fresh air at the dog park, courtesy of his Australian Labradoodle, Marvel. Yes, Marvel like the MCU - Captain America wielding Thor's hammer still gives him goosebumps to this day. Adam prides himself on his DVD collection with Christian Bale’s Batman or Kanye West's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy on CD, and his uncanny talent for remembering the lyrics to almost any song - country not included. Known for his incredible emotional intelligence, Adam genuinely loves meeting new people, and comes to life around them. Adam’s positive outlook on life has proven to be both infectious and uplifting. He indulges in the little things, like his daily black coffee IV drip, obsessive cleaning breaks and consuming his weight in sushi. His long term goals are humbly simple (and relatable), including quality hip mobility throughout the years, becoming a Girl Dad (see urban dictionary) and learning to cook hard-boiled eggs that actually peel properly.
- Vi Nguyen
- Director of Operations
- Vi Nguyen
- Director of Operations
- Hey there, sports fans! You might know your stuff but we bet you’re not as fanatic as Vi. Her goal is to visit every stadium in North America and she’s already hit 15 of them. She religiously watches football every Sunday and various other sports nearly nine months of the year with her dad and friends, cheering for the Seahawks, Oilers and Dodgers. She’s also huge into hot yoga and snowboarding. So much so that she’ll drive four hours from Edmonton to Banff to catch a good snowfall for a day of shredding down a mountain and then drive home. Her collection game is on point too. Being a bit of a sneakerhead, Vi collects shoes, mostly vintage Jordans, and has more than 40 pairs. Born and raised in Edmonton, Vi studied marketing at MacEwan University and has always been interested in the creative processes of advertising (maybe partially due to being a big Mad Men fan). But she might argue the best lessons come from the mob. At least on screen. Vi loves all things mafia-related like Casino, Goodfellas and The Sopranos, and as far back as she can remember always wanted to be a gangster. Jokes!

- Ben Goliath
- Director of Technology
- Ben likes to keep active by going to the gym, playing hockey and snowboarding. You’d think he’d have some painful broken bone stories to share, but his calcium stores are too strong for that as he’s never so much as had a fracture. Ben’s love of sports extends to the professional leagues and the Blue Jays, Cowboys and Oilers get his loudest cheers—but that’s where the noise ends. He’s not one of those guys who’ll yell, “Missed a spot!” at unsuspecting zamboni drivers. He understands the pressure of having an arena full of people watching you manoeuvre a giant mop around the ice since he used to drive one himself. Ben graduated with a BCom from MacEwan University, and is also a NAIT Marketing grad. Before coming our way he worked as a trainmaster at CN. This guy has had the coolest jobs! Ben likes to spend his weekends camping and brings along his very silly husky-cross Stella. If he happens to be sticking around the city he’ll either be sitting on a patio, drink in hand, or bingeing a new Netflix series while waiting for HBO to release the latest season of Game of Thrones. Oh, and he believes that all of Westeros is screwed with a white walker dragon on the loose.

- Sonney Sandhu
- Director - Finance & Administration
- With more than ten years of experience in the accounting world, Sonney brings a wealth of financial expertise to LoKnow. Beginning his career in banking as a Financial Advisor, Sonney decided to shift his focus to accounting. He took the leap and went back to school, earning his CPA Designation and kicking off his accounting career. Good thing too—we’re lucky to have him as the Director of our F&A team! Outside the office, Sonney likes to spend his days with his family, particularly his 2 children who keep him busy and always on his toes. In the warmer seasons, you’ll likely find Sonney finessing his swing on the golf course. He once set a goal for himself to hit in the 70's, and recently hit a 76—one of the proudest moments in his life, rivaled only by the day he learned to moonwalk.

- Royden Thomson
- Senior Manager - Client Success
- Have a question about cars? Ask Royden! Since applying his marketing degree within the automotive industry, car knowledge has become second nature for him. After relocating to Edmonton from Ontario as a District Manager for General Motors, Royden's ambition to delve deeper into marketing analytics finally led him to LoKnow! We're learning that Royden's a man of many talents - not only can he drive a manual transmission (no surprises here!) but he's also a self-proclaimed pun-master, dad-joke connoisseur and probably has one of the highest records of Cadbury Mini Eggs consumed in one sitting. Like any other husband and dog dad, you can usually find Royden trying to convince his wife that tofu isn't all that bad or visiting the local dog park multiple times a day. Parent to Lily, a two-year-old Labradoodle and an 11-year-old Russian Blue Cat named Socrates, Royden spends his free time balancing Lily's constant need for cuddles and Socrates' habit of eating before the sun comes up. With the free time that Royden does find, he enjoys watching reruns of Schitt's Creek, spontaneous weekend trips to Jasper, and long bike rides through the river valley to discover new hidden places in nature. Much to his own surprise, he's not the biggest fan of camping as his fear of being eaten by wolves > his love for s'mores.

- Stephen Schiavone
- Senior Manager - Audience & Optimization
- Have you ever seen the movie Cocktail with Tom Cruise? It’s actually a biopic of Stephen’s life, well, all except for the wealthy New Yorkers, illegitimate pregnancies, and excessive drama. When he’s not working at LoKnow, Stephen runs a small catering and pop-up restaurant company. He has a passion for fine food and a well-made cocktail. Known for hosting a mean dinner party, Stephen honed his skills cooking for his fraternity brothers at the University of Alberta, where he studied political science and economics. He’s also a fanatic about playing sports. All sports. He plays competitive soccer and recreational everything else, and you can’t shut him up about hockey pools, fantasy football, and any other imaginary sports played for fake internet points. Stephen’s other idea of fun is playing strategy board games into the wee hours of the morning. He’s a detail noticer and will work hard to make sure every project he undertakes ends up wowing those around him.

- Regan Dennehy
- Regional Sales Manager
- Regan moved back to his hometown of Winnipeg after a 25-year hiatus down under. He got his start selling sporting goods before branching into the ski industry at Sun Ice Ski Wear in Calgary. As sales manager, he signed the Canadian National Ski Team to the brand and the Team started to win! Coincidence? Sales went from 1M to 40M and the brand was awarded Official supplier to 88 Calgary Winter Olympics. This was a big win as Regan’s first love has always been skiing. He’s heli-skied in the Kootenays, spent 250 days at Whistler, and skied Banff, Aspen, Jackson Hole, Vail and Tahoe, to name a few. In ‘94 the family moved to Melbourne where Regan worked with Callaway Golf as the national sales manager for the South Pacific. He’s the kind of guy who’s got a great energy and will try anything once. In Australia he learned to surf, drive on the wrong side of the road and call a sweater a jumper. Since he’s been back in Canada, he’s started skiing and ice skating again and riding his bike every day. He’s also got a thing for old speed boats—and owned a 22' mahogany boat. He loves the varnish, the sound of the motor, the wind in his hair and being on the water.

A proven polyglot, Alim can speak four and a half languages, namely English, Gujarati, Hindi, Kutchi and some basic Spanish. With his fervor to learn more, Alim aspires to master his leadership skills as his career progresses - manager, executive, and then who knows? Alim for Office 2024?

- Manager - Audience & Optimization
- Michelle moved to Vancouver a few years ago from Hong Kong and is quite the linguist. She perfected her English by getting involved in student groups, working in a bubble tea shop and joining an a cappella choir. She also speaks Cantonese, Mandarin and Korean—thank you, Korean dramas!—a little bit of Japanese and enough Portuguese to teach her friends how to swear. She has become quite accustomed to the West Coast’s laid-back lifestyle and loves looking up at the sky and the tall trees. She says in Hong Kong the buildings are so tall she didn’t have the opportunity to enjoy nature in the same way. She’s noticed that even our escalators are laid-back, whereas in Hong Kong they’re so fast that if you’re not paying attention you could fly right off. Michelle studied communications and publishing at Simon Fraser University and has an interest in book-jacket design. She loves a simple image that uses the right colour scheme to capture a reader’s attention—you might say she really does judge a book by its cover. She loves wandering and exploring the city, book in hand, and if she’s not hanging out at a coffee shop in Gastown, she’s most likely lounging around English Bay.

She’s amassed an impressive collection of souvenir Starbucks mugs from gorgeous and exotic locales like Dubai and Edmonton. She once chased down a person she saw drinking a Frappuccino in Mykonos just to ask where the Starbucks was! Such fearless determination has led to much success in her career. In a previous job, she won the company’s coveted sales award after only being there a year, a prize that included a trip to Cancun! Of course, the first thing she did there was go to Starbucks. She no doubt had to fill a blank space in her mug collection.

- Adrian was introduced to digital marketing in his college days, dipping his toes into the world of freelance work in content creation and social media. Passionate about helping businesses grow, he was drawn to LoKnow, where he could work on advertising strategy and execution within the A&O team—that, and the idea of working alongside a team instead of having to do it all himself! Though none of his pets could join him on the trek to Canada, Adrian is a pet-parent to four dogs, plenty of fish, and multiple birds. He admittedly has a special place in his heart for his pet Sun Conure named Blue—though its feathers are ironically a mix of yellow and red. A self-taught barista, Adrian will happily pass up a Starbucks or Tims run for a warm cup of home-brewed coffee, courtesy of his professional equipment. When he’s not crafting his own cold brew or pining for his many pets, Adrian unwinds by learning songs by ear on the piano, sax, guitar and bass.

She hopes to one day bring them from the Philippines and recruit them to our headshot hall of fame. In true Leo fashion, Aela embraces her productive side by squeezing in a morning workout everyday. On weekends, she tries to find balance between doing everything she’s ever wanted to do, and camping out on her couch to catch up on K-Dramas (could that be a Libra rising?). Also a proud Army, Aela is always ready for any convo about all things BTS, and loves meeting fellow fans. On the days she finds herself outdoors, she likes to move it, move it!

- Quiet on set! Brian can belt out that clarion call at higher than 110 decibels when needed, having worked as an assistant director in Toronto’s film industry for ten years. At any given point during a day he was responsible for dozens of actors and stunt personnel, and coordinating over 100 crew. Making sure they were in the right place at the right time, fixing problems, thinking on the fly and basically creating order against an unyielding tide of chaos—actors, am I right? Brian then completed post-grad studies in PR and Interactive Marketing Communications and worked as a freelancer before making the journey west. His pastimes include creating card and board games and TV show outlines. He has even created characters, mostly villains, that have appeared on television. Brian’s pretty much a jack-of-all-trades and regardless of the project he’s working on, he’s listening to a soundtrack tailored to the job. Brainstorming walks at night might call for one of his favourite horror soundtracks, while showing up early to crunch some pre-morning tasks might demand that the office sound like a 3am rave.

Holding a Bachelor of Commerce degree from MacEwan University, Theo has always been intrigued by finance and is currently working towards attaining a designation as a Certified Financial Planner. Away from his spreadsheets, Theo likes to keep active by running, playing soccer or basketball, and going on adventures that take him out of his comfort zone—like the time he went white-water rafting for the first time while in Switzerland, without knowing how to swim. When not playing sports, Theo spends his evenings loudly venting his displeasure at professional athletes. Sure, they probably can’t hear him through the TV, but at least his neighbours are fully aware that that was an obvious dive. Get your eyes checked, ref! Formerly from Fort McMurray, he and his family were fleeing the great wildfire of 2016 when their car broke down on the roadside. Unable to flag down a ride from fellow evacuees, Theo had the brilliant idea to hold their cat, Kat, aloft much like young Simba in The Lion King, to catch the eye of a passing motorist so his family could hitch a ride out of town. This innate appreciation for the persuasive power of cats leaves no doubt that he was destined to join the LoKnow team.
