Our team

Laura Mock
Director

“I couldn’t be more thrilled to join the Cultivator team. With my business background and leadership experience, I’m eager to step into this strategic role.  What excites me most is the opportunity to make a tangible impact on our province alongside such a passionate and high-performing team. It truly feels like hitting the jackpot – being able to combine my skills with such an incredible opportunity. I’m energized by the prospect of contributing to Cultivator’s mission and playing a part in growing our tech community.”

Bre Walkeden
Community and Partner Manager

“I started my journey with Cultivator in July 2021, and couldn’t be more excited to be a part of the team. Having previously worked for the Saskatchewan Roughriders, I know a thing or two about Saskatchewan pride and am blown away by the support for Saskatchewan tech startups here at Cultivator. At Cultivator, I work with partners to grow the SK tech ecosystem and create strategic relationships to grow community engagement. Outside of work, you can catch me walking my dog, Joey, around Wascana Park or tackling DIY projects at my house.”

Brianna Blazeiko
Community Coordinator

“I eagerly joined Cultivator in February 2024 after years of supporting their events, feeling like a natural extension of the team. Fuelled by creativity and guided by a keen eye for detail, I bring a diverse background in marketing, event planning, coordination and entrepreneurship. When I’m not at the office or at an event, I enjoy the fresh air and walks with my dog Lex, exploring new destinations, and relaxing at the lake. I’m thrilled to be a part of the Cultivator team, where each day presents an opportunity to collaborate with incredible colleagues, work alongside visionary founders and create exceptional experiences for them and our community.”

Calder Dollard
Program Coordinator

“Upon graduating from the University of Regina Business Program in 2020, I worked in logistics, overseeing and coordinating the transportation of commodities across the prairies and into the U.S., where I further developed my business and agricultural knowledge. As someone who has lived in Regina my entire life, and as someone who considers themselves a techno-optimist, I am thrilled to be able to contribute to the developing startup ecosystem in my backyard. I love fostering relationships and helping contribute to the growth of dynamic ventures. In my spare time, you can find me at the lake, relaxing with friends or playing golf.”

Kyle Lugt
Program Coordinator

“After completing my business degree at the University of Regina in 2021, I joined Cultivator. Within Cultivator, I’ve been involved in various tasks, including space management, marketing, and organizing special events and projects. When I’m not at the Cultivator HQ, you might find me relaxing by the lake or playfully attempting to convince people that I’m an athlete. The tech scene in Saskatchewan is expanding, and I’m excited to be a part of its growth!”

Matt Brennan
Program Coordinator

“I’ve jumped into the tech space from a background in business consulting. I have worked with organizations across Saskatchewan to develop and set strategic direction, facilitate leadership development and team training workshops. I am passionate about seeing businesses thrive in Saskatchewan. I am excited to journey alongside startups in the ecosystem and see companies START, GROW, and SCALE. When I’m not at work you can find me traveling, camping, or playing board games with friends.”

Rebecca Franklin
Program Coordinator

“My excitement stems from a profound passion for technology and innovation. It all started on my family farm in Radville, SK, where I witnessed firsthand the transformative impact of agricultural innovation on efficiency and productivity. After spending five years in the SK Ag sector, I ventured into the tech sector in Halifax, NS, where I immersed myself in the world of startups, venture capital, and the critical factors investors seek in companies. Now, at Cultivator, I’m eagerly embracing the opportunity to lend my support to Scale and Agtech founders as they build companies that contribute to a brighter and more promising future!”

Moses Anjorin
Program Coordinator

I am a management professional with extensive experience in project management, program management, and event coordination in the professional and non-profit space. My passion lies in community development, leadership, and technology, which has driven my career choices and engagements. Upon graduating from the University of Regina in 2022, I have been dedicated to pursuing my passion for community building through various initiatives. Joining Cultivator excites me because it provides an opportunity to work with a team of exceptional individuals who are making significant contributions to the development of Saskatchewan’s tech space by supporting founders. In my personal time, I enjoy reading, trying new recipes in the kitchen, and playing video games.

Pall Agarwal
Summer Student

Coming full circle with Cultivator from winning the 24 hour startup to joining as a summer student, I am excited to make big waves in the startup ecosystem. Working alongside such bright individuals in the team as well as surrounding myself with such amazing founders in the office is truly a blessing. This experience at Cultivator is going to be one of a kind as it is truly unique to be a part of such an immaculate space while still being in school! Eager to explore different programs and contribute in the behind the scenes of all things Cultivator – START, GROW, SCALE, AGTECH, and 24 hour startup. If not found connecting dots, you would only find me exploring the city, giving back to the community through volunteering, or debating with friends on whether Canada will be able to win the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
