Georgie

Office Dog

Georgie hails from the Annapolis Valley of Nova Scotia, with ancestral roots tracing back to Havana, Cuba. He joined the UPLAND team in the winter of 2022 at the ripe age of 8 months and has grown into his role of Office Dog, taking on many different responsibilities. He takes his position as mental and physical health support worker very seriously, visiting his office mates throughout the day to connect and decompress (promoting that work-life balance!), and encouraging his colleagues to get up from the desk every so often to take a few running laps around the room and get the “zoomies” out. His position as chief of security is where his true passion lies – ensuring no guest enters the office without a robust greeting.

Georgie is a strong advocate for high quality public space and encourages grassy components as a key feature in any landscape design. When he’s not busy with his responsibilities at UPLAND, Georgie can be found running on any number of Atlantic Canada’s beautiful beaches, or making friends and taking in the beauty of Halifax’s Point Pleasant Park.
