Business Leaders… PART FOCUS - MAY 2017 24 Business Leaders… PART 3 LEE WARNER Rodan + Fields Born and raised in Port Perry, Lee discovered six months ago that early retirement wasn’t self-fulfilling enough and craved the need to connect with community again. With skills in entrepreneurship, she decided to launch an online business with Rodan + Fields (founders of ProActiv), with the mission of helping people have the best skin of their lives. Once offered on retail shelves, these “clinical” skincare products are now available through online distributors such as Lee because of a rapidly growing e-commerce society. The products address anti-aging skincare concerns from wrinkles, loss of firmness, dullness, to sun damage, sensitive skin, and acne. “I’m so proud to be a part of the #1 premium skincare brand in North America,” says Lee. “My passion is helping others, and I’m excited to share a product that really works! The best part of giving back is teaching this online business method to others.” For the best skin of your life, call/text: 905-439-4655 FaceBook: Lee Warner’s Rodan + Fields www.leewarner.myrandf.com/ca Lee Warner’s 188 Mary Street, Port Perry 905-925-1343 • jon@photosNtravel.com JONATHAN VAN BILSEN PHOTOGRAPHY Jonathan van Bilsen has spent most of his adult life travelling, photographing and writing about wonderful locations around the world.

Once occupied by her grandfather George Stone, a successful realtor, this local landmark has been in Christy’s family for 50 years. The popular Piano Café was established 15 years ago. It’s situated in the heart of downtown. Part of the charm is the revolving art show featuring local artists including Ruth Stone’s watercolours and META4 Gallery.
