Mississauga, Ont., March 17, 2015 – With great pleasure, the senior management team at AssessMed would like to announce Tia Levan’s promotion to National Vice President of Operations and Media Relations.

In this newly created role, Tia will broaden her leadership and strategic focus to include locations in Ontario and Western regions, giving her national oversight for all of AssessMed’s operations.  As the leader of our media relations function, Tia will work with the online marketing team to develop and execute marketing and media strategies that underpin AssessMed’s brand positioning goals designed to increase our market share and further our financial growth.
