Okanagan Edge and the Kelowna Chamber of Commerce are partnering to showcase some of the region’s most exciting entrepreneurs through the “Top 40 Over 40” program.

Sponsored by BDO, the “Top 40 Over 40” recognizes high-achieving professionals in our community and showcases their accomplishments. This marks the seventh year the chamber has conducted a “Top 40” showcase. Honourees will be featured throughout the year on Okanagan Edge.

Krenzel’s impact on the Central Okanagan has been significant. The company has been able to support more than 25 small businesses in and around the Okanagan. Starting a business during the pandemic was significant to her because they were able to support so many other local companies right here in the Okanagan.

Krenzel says they put forth a true effort to sustain and help other small businesses. And that helped create a sense of security as well as a light at the end of the tunnel. Krenzel was passionate about being able to make a difference and support others. As her business grows, so do the other companies that they continue to partner with and support right here in the Okanagan. During these unprecedented times she is passionate about her community. Definitely, she says, she is looking for unique ways to support the community and companies around them. She feels fortunate and looks forward to what 2021 has in store.

Krenzel joined the Canadian Alopecia Areata Foundation in 2016. Her daughter suffers from a condition called alopecia, which is an autoimmune disease that causes hair to fall out. When her daughter lost all her hair four years ago, Krenzel educated herself regarding the disease. While serving as the Okanagan leader of the help group, she also took on a leadership role in her daughter’s dance studio.

Krenzel volunteers for a range of projects: donating clothes to the women’s shelter; at the Distress Centre crisis line; and as an advocate for Canadian Alopecia Areata Foundation.
