About me

Sherri Bondy, Chief Procurement Officer

I've been a Stashaholic since $1.44 day at Woolco showed me the wonder of bomb-proof acrylic. Thankfully my taste and skills have evolved since then. I was diagnosed as an adult with ADHD Combined Type - which explains the impulsive startitis and attention gaps quite nicely.
