Jodie Hon, Innovation & STEM Manager
Engineer | P. Eng
Jodie started her career as a young engineer in the oil and gas industry. Around the same time, she started exploring the mountains and lakes around Alberta and BC through a variety of activities. After over three years in this field, driven by her love of the natural world, she decided to make the switch to the sustainability industry. She spent four years working on the design and construction of low-carbon district energy systems using technologies such as geo-exchange and waste heat recovery. Upon discovering Iron & Earth, she realized she could help others make the same meaningful transition that she did. She’s excited to help build the Climate Career Portal, among other important projects with Iron & Earth.

Iron & Earth was founded within Treaty 6 Territory and within the Métis homelands and Métis Nation of Alberta Region 4. We acknowledge this land as the traditional territories of many First Nations, including the Nehiyaw (Cree), Denesuliné (Dene), Nakota Sioux (Stoney), Anishinaabe (Saulteaux), and Niitsitapi (Blackfoot).
Iron & Earth acknowledges that our work takes place on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territories of Indigenous Peoples across Canada. We recognize the ongoing impacts of colonialism and the deep connection that Indigenous communities have with the land, water, and environment. Our commitment to a Just Transition is informed by Indigenous land stewardship principles. We are dedicated to fostering partnerships with Indigenous communities, respecting their sovereignty, and learning from their knowledge and traditions. We strive to ensure that our initiatives are inclusive and support community-driven climate solutions, contributing to a sustainable and equitable future for all. We honor the diverse histories, languages, and cultures of Indigenous Peoples and commit to continuing our journey of learning and reconciliation as we work together toward a thriving green economy.
