Mary got her start in research over 25 years ago as a data analyst at MarkTrend Research. This was a time when data analysts had to rely on things called “mainframe computers” and use arcane programming languages to process data – back then you had to wait weeks to get your results. There was nothing quick about it.
Since her days as a data analyst in the pre-internet era, Mary has held progressively senior positions in research operations and client development. She is now a trusted consultant to major organizations across Canada and the U.S. Public and private sector organizations turn to Mary for her unique ability to translate research results into practical recommendations that help solve problems and identify opportunities.
Mary is particularly passionate about helping organizations find ways to deliver better service, work more efficiently, be better places to work, and become more profitable. The sweet spot for Mary is when she can apply a research solution to help organizations achieve these goals.
Mary is an important mentor and advisor to our younger researchers, guiding their work and supporting their development in the industry.
Mary is Sentis’ Privacy Officer, responsible for ensuring that our policies and procedures always meet and exceed the requirements of the FOIPPA and PIPA.
VOE and VOC program design, corporate reputation measurement, performance management, program evaluation, privacy legislation.
Government and citizen services, public opinion, energy and utilities healthcare and pharmaceuticals, security services, financial services.
While in the office, Mary has mints, she always has mints. Outside the office, Mary is an avid reader, a CrossFit enthusiast with her husband, and strangely, seldom has mints…

Adam arrived in Vancouver in August 1991, sight unseen, to study psychology. Six long years later, he netted a PhD – but it was a PhD with no realistic prospect of a job in the academic world. So he needed to find another world, or at least a job so that he could stay in Vancouver.
That job was officially titled “Research Consultant” – a misleading title because he initially wasn’t asked to consult on anything. He was given fairly low-level tasks, which he performed dutifully but with no idea how these tasks could be classified as research. Having heard the term “insight” repeatedly around the office, Adam was anxious to prove himself by generating some.
His first opportunity came with a project about “what drives consumer milk brand choices”. Adam’s analysis was exhaustive and he was confident that he’d found the key driver. Using a respondent comment for dramatic effect, he summarized for his audience that consumer choice was pretty straightforward – they “prefer the brand with the biggest jugs!”
Fast-forward quickly to 2011. Adam founded Sentis to apply his research skills in a way that would really help clients solve problems and make sound investments in marketing and operations. Luckily, Adam’s insights have sharpened from the early days, and he now helps clients across a range of industry sectors to attract and retain customers and employees, to strengthen their brand and reputations, and to identify new areas for growth.
Today he runs Sentis with fellow Managing Partner, Julie Winram. Their successful partnership is based on a shared commitment to doing what’s right for our clients’ business and investing in our team. It’s a pretty simple formula.
Brand development and positioning, KPI development and tracking, VOC program design, program evaluation, public opinion, corporate reputation, employee commitment and well-being.
Experimental design, segmentation, advanced analytics, in-depth interviewing, focus group moderating.
Tourism, energy and utilities, transportation, financial services, government and citizen services, and healthcare.
Adam received his Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in psychology from the University of British Columbia (UBC). He received his qualitative research training from RIVA, and his Indigenous culture awareness training from The Path Institute.
Adam was born in Jersey City, New Jersey and came to Vancouver by way of Madison, Wisconsin. When not at Sentis HQ, he often can be found gardening or golfing – both which he pursues with enthusiasm and mixed results.
Ask Adam about… working with pigeons.

Kimberly returned to Vancouver after completing her Bachelor of Arts degree at York University, where she majored in psychology. During her time at York, she became drawn to population-based research. She realized that while it’s not the only way to solve the world’s problems, it does somehow satisfy her borderline obsession with drilling down to details.
Through both self-directed projects and supervised thesis research, Kimberly learned all the key elements of the research process, from establishing ethical guidelines, sourcing sample populations, analyzing data, and presenting results clearly and concisely.
In addition to pursuing her interest in research, Kimberly also spent a lot of time volunteering – providing academic support to at-risk youth, conducting music therapy with patients at risk for dementia, and serving as a peer mentor.
As a Senior Project Manager at Sentis, Kimberly plays an essential and varied role in ensuring project success from start to finish. On any given day you might find her programming a survey, prepping a sample, analyzing data, or creating a report.

As a child, Cory was keen on becoming a professional athlete and had hopes to one day make the NHL and play for his hometown Vancouver Canucks.
