Calgary-based, award-winning real estate agent, Katherine Bennett, has recently been named a Trusted Real Estate Professional by HGTV and Home Network star Scott McGillivray.
Katherine has extensive experience assisting out-of-province buyers and first-time homeowners, as well as advising seasoned investors, including luxury-level professionals, on navigating Alberta’s real estate market. Drawn by Alberta’s lower home prices and strong job market, many Ontarians are making the move west in search of opportunity. The transition can be overwhelming without the right guidance. Unexpected expenses, such as inspection fees, legal costs, moving expenses, condo fees, insurance and utilities often take buyers by surprise and can quickly strain their finances. Alberta is calling and RE/MAX’s Katherine Bennett is ready to help Ontarians answer with confidence.
With years of real estate service under her belt, Katherine Bennett assures that her clients are in good hands. Representing local and future homeowners, Katherine is committed to listening to her clients, focusing on their needs and using keen negotiating skills to ensure a successful transaction. Her intimate knowledge of this region, combined with her lifelong experiences of living here, gives her an enthusiasm and a desire to make her home, your home.
Katherine Bennett recently won the #1 Top Individual designation at RE/MAX Realty Professionals for September 2025.
Beyond her credentials and accolades, what truly sets Katherine apart is her genuine dedication to helping buyers feel grounded and informed throughout one of life’s biggest transitions. She understands that purchasing a home—whether across the city or across the country—is not just a financial decision but an emotional journey. Many of her clients describe her as a steady voice of reassurance, someone who breaks down each step with clarity, patience, and a rare kind of empathy that transforms uncertainty into confidence.
Katherine’s process often begins long before her clients ever set foot in Alberta. She spends time helping them understand neighbourhood personalities, school options, commute times, and lifestyle differences so they can picture themselves living in Calgary with complete transparency. Her virtual tours are known for being thorough and thoughtful, capturing not just the features of a property but the feeling of the surrounding community. Clients appreciate that she goes the extra mile, offering guidance on everything from relocation logistics to understanding Alberta-specific regulations that differ from those in Ontario and other provinces.
Her background in negotiation and market analysis allows her to advocate fiercely for the best possible outcomes. Whether she’s helping a young couple secure their first townhouse or assisting an investor searching for revenue-generating opportunities, Katherine tailors her approach to match each client’s goals and comfort level. She takes pride in being approachable and accessible, ensuring that her clients never feel rushed or pressured. Instead, she empowers them with information and insight so they can make well-informed decisions that align with their long-term plans.
Katherine’s deep connection to Calgary also fuels her passion for real estate. She has watched neighbourhoods transform, businesses grow, and city pockets evolve into vibrant hubs. This firsthand experience allows her to spot emerging opportunities early and guide clients toward areas poised for appreciation and lifestyle value. Her love for the region isn’t just professional—it’s personal—and she shares it enthusiastically with those considering Alberta as their next home.

Nancy Goemans is the founder and co-owner of Pie Junkie, a Calgary artisan pie shop she established in 2015. Prior to launching the business, she spent more than 25 years running a boutique marketing and design agency focused on the hospitality and food industries—building brands, developing menus, styling cookbooks, and shaping food-centric experiences.
The inspiration for Pie Junkie was deeply personal. Nancy’s daughter, Taya, who lives with Williams syndrome, loved baking pies with her grandmother. After Nancy’s mother passed away, Taya asked, “Who will make pie with me now?” Nancy replied, “I will,” to which Taya responded that she wanted to make pie for a living. That exchange sparked Nancy’s mission to create a space where exceptional pies would be crafted by hand and where all people—particularly those facing employment barriers—would be welcomed.
Toward the end of Pie Junkie’s inaugural year, Nancy partnered with her longtime friend Jo-Anne Caza, who brought financial and operational expertise to complement Nancy’s creative vision. Together, they have grown Pie Junkie from a single storefront into five Calgary locations, while preserving the brand’s commitment to quality, craftsmanship, and community.
Under Nancy and Joanne’s leadership, Pie Junkie has become celebrated for its all-butter crusts, scratch-made fillings, seasonal menus, ethical sourcing, sustainable practices, and dedication to social impact.
The commitment to superior quality is evident in every single offering, transforming the artisan pie shop into a beloved local institution focused on creating memorable food experiences. The spectacular selection features a delicious variety of both sweet and savoury pies, ensuring there is a perfect slice of joy for any occasion or craving. Pie Junkie’s delightful menu highlights handcrafted items ranging from full-sized Celebration Pies, ideal for marking significant milestones, to convenient, perfectly portioned TV Dinners. Patrons frequently indulge in the richly flavoured Pot Pies, such as the classic Aussie Beef, the hearty Steak & Mushroom, or the sophisticated Steak, Stout & Gruyere.
These expertly crafted savoury sensations are a comforting spirit embodied in a flaky puff pastry crust. The famous family recipes are always made from scratch and filled with love, bringing time and comfort back into modern family tradition. During the holiday season, customers enthusiastically order hand-made sweet and savoury options, like the deeply flavourful Tourtière or the truly impressive Mushroom Wellington, a show-stopping centrepiece featuring a medley of tender mushrooms, garlic, and herbs with a rich duxelles filling encased in delicate pastry. Seasonal offerings always include festive treats such as the Duo Chocolate Santa Face and the Chocolate Hazelnut pies, alongside perennial favourites like the perfect Frozen Classic Apple and Frozen Blueberry pies, which are easily prepared at home.
Beyond pies, the bakery extends its delightful repertoire to include cookies and brownies, showcasing irresistible items such as Gingerbread Men Cookies, Sugar Cookies, and decadent Raspberry Brownies. They also offer a delicious assortment of soups, including creamy Tomato Bisque, rich French Onion, and comforting Potato Leek, providing easy meals for busy families. In response to diverse dietary needs, Pie Junkie meticulously prepares gluten free sweet pies, ensuring everyone can share in the delicious experience.
The widespread network includes five conveniently located Calgary locations: Spruce Cliff/Wildwood, Legacy, Crowfoot, Mahogany, and the newer West District location. This expansion allows the company to reach more people with their heartfelt gift of delicious, authentic food. Furthermore, the dedication to community extends through robust corporate gifts programs and fundraising initiatives, helping other organizations while sharing their commitment to ethical sourcing and sustainable practices. Nancy and Jo-Anne continue to oversee all operations, ensuring that the original vision of making exceptional, comforting pies and creating an inclusive workplace remains at the heart of the growing business, always prioritizing craftsmanship and superior ingredients in every product they deliver, promising a memorable, delicious experience every single time.

Sweet Bella is one of Calgary’s top chocolatiers, known for its bold, adventurous approach to flavour. Pastry Chef Kevin Conniff founded Sweet Bella as a labour of love, turning a personal passion into a thriving business with products now available in over 20 locations across Western Canada, as well as in Connecticut, Texas, and Colorado.
The name Sweet Bella means “the sweet beautiful”—a concept that comes to life in the brand’s signature eccentric flavours and intricately engraved chocolate bars. While early creations were inspired by tea and spice blends, the company has since evolved to focus on a broader and ever-changing palette of creative ingredients.
Kevin is a classically trained pastry chef with over 25 years of experience. He currently teaches as a Pastry Chef Instructor at the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology (SAIT). In 2023, he was featured on the Food Network’s “Holiday Baking Championship,” Season 10, where he was the only Canadian contestant and finished as runner-up, showcasing the exceptional talent Calgary has to offer.
Originally from New York, Kevin’s culinary journey began in 1992 with a job washing dishes at a local bakery. He quickly became captivated by the craft, working his way up and eventually attending pastry school—where, ironically, tempering chocolate was once his greatest challenge. Today, chocolate is his passion and his art form.
Kevin and his wife Melissa share a love of coffee, red wine, sweet treats, and great conversation. Their two sons are often found in the chocolate shop, learning about life, business, and the joy of creative work, usually to the soundtrack of ’90s hip-hop and alt-rock.
Sweet Bella operates on a foundational philosophy that embraces creativity, craftsmanship, and the pure exploration of chocolate. It is a proudly Canadian chocolate company based in Calgary, Alberta, where every delicious bar is meticulously handcrafted using only premium ingredients and a whole lot of heart. This dedication to quality ensures a truly sophisticated and satisfying experience for every customer who enjoys a taste of adventure in every delectable bite.
The company actively seeks to partner with local distributors and independent retailers, ensuring their bold, artistic chocolate is available in markets not just across Western Canada, but also reaching chocolate enthusiasts far beyond. This strategic growth has established Sweet Bella as a beloved local brand with international reach. The signature collection features both rich milk chocolate and intense dark chocolate bars, each one uniquely infused with imaginative flavors, complementary spices, and savory seasonings. There are currently eight classic Sweet Bella bars, and all of these unique creations are distinct in both their exquisite taste profile and their uniquely designed physical appearance, showcasing the artistry involved in their making.
This core range is always available online and at select retail partners and various local markets, allowing widespread access to these phenomenal products. For businesses looking for unique offerings, Sweet Bella provides an excellent opportunity to stock unique, small-batch chocolate in any retail space, including boutiques, charming gift shops, and busy cafes. The wholesale program is streamlined to accommodate corporate gifting and is available across North America, offering flexible order volumes and specialized wholesale pricing to make partnership straightforward and appealing. Furthermore, the expert design team at Sweet Bella is adept at Custom Collaborations, working closely with businesses, dedicated event planners, and influential organizations to craft truly unique, memorable chocolate for any significant occasion.
This service allows for a company logo and specific branding to be seamlessly added to one of the eight established classic chocolate bars, creating a perfect, personalized corporate gift or an elegant event takeaway. The company’s commitment extends into the community, proudly supporting organizations like BBBS Calgary in their important work in the local YYC community. They also recognize iconic duos, frequently celebrating the timeless partnership of Coffee and Chocolate, exemplified by collaborations with local coffee roasters. Seasonal offerings, such as the popular Holiday Tasting Box, which typically features six of their top-selling flavours, further demonstrate their commitment to continuously engaging with their customers and providing fresh, exciting chocolate experiences throughout the year. The entire operation remains centered on the joyful, creative work inspired by Kevin Conniff’s personal passion.
