Anne Buhler
Purchaser
Anne kicked off her career teaching English in Hong Kong before jumping into the fast-paced media world in London, UK. As a Media Account Manager, she helped both non-profits and businesses find the right media mix to make an impact. Back in Vancouver, she brought that energy to a boutique grocery start-up as Operations Manager, helping build something from the ground up.
Now at Arts Umbrella, she blends all that experience with her passion for building community and creating meaningful connections.
Fun fact: she’s visited over 30 countries—and she’s not done yet.
