Congratulations Brittany DeYoung

As Finance Manager in the Department of Family Medicine, Brittany has transformed how the department handles finances across three Maritime provinces. Her innovative cost-sharing models and skillful navigation of tough negotiations have secured sustainable funding for critical programs. Known for her calm, practical approach, Brittany is a go-to advisor for faculty leadership.

Her shift to modern tools like SharePoint has made operations smoother, while her equity-focused financial planning ensures diverse contributions are recognized.
