Meet the team

This is the team that contributes to your experience at The Haven – from helping you choose your programs, welcoming you upon arrival, and completing a myriad of activities behind the scenes to ensure your program is delivered smoothly and your stay is comfortable. Most of our staff have been with The Haven for many years, and continue to participate in our programs just like you.

Morag Ruckman, Director of Programming has worked at The Haven since 1996 and has an in-depth, practical knowledge of our programs and participants. She has participated in many Haven programs, and brings her learning into both her personal and professional life.

Shelley Berry, Human Resources Manager, has over two decades of leading teams in the areas of Customer Service and Human Resources.  She brings to the Haven her energy and passion for encouraging a positive culture and growing meaningful relationships.  Joining the Haven team and moving permanently to Gabriola has fulfilled her desire to live, work and play in a community full of human connection.

Shannon Schetyna, Registrar, has a passion for lifelong learning and growth. She enjoys connecting people with programs that will give them tools for bettering their daily lives. Shannon started as a Receptionist in 2016, quickly moving into the Registration office.  In her off time you’ll find her on an outdoor adventure with her energetic son and husband.

Rowan Macnab, Registrar, has been with Haven since 2024 making her the newest member of the Haven team.  She brings great energy and a fresh approach with an amazing sense of humour.  In her free time, she loves ocean swimming and hanging out with her dog Lola.
