Lily Gao, Technical Architect
FIRST STEPS
Lily began her career in information technology (IT) after she completed her master's degree in computer science in China. In her last job in China, she was a manager in a large American-owned company.
When Lily immigrated to Canada, she first came to Vancouver, but was unable to find an IT job, so she volunteered at a company. She then found work doing technical support in Fort McMurray in northern Alberta before she was offered her current position in Winnipeg.
