“As Givex continues to grow, I look forward to leveraging my background in retail, finance/audit and acquisition integration to help Givex achieve its goals,” said Kulkarni.

In her spare time, Kulkarni has been a strong advocate for the disabled through Abilities to Work (affiliated with the Government of Canada and Ontario Government) where she has been a Board Member and Treasurer since 2018.
