Meet Our Hosts:

Amy Aust

Amy Aust brings over 20 years of professional broadcasting experience to the Barrie Business Awards. With a career decorated with numerous accolades, Amy has had the privilege of interviewing top music stars such as Carrie Underwood, Keith Urban, Florida Georgia Line, and Blake Shelton. Beyond her broadcasting achievements, Amy is deeply involved in local fundraising efforts, contributing significantly to the Royal Victoria Regional Health Centre's cardiology, cancer, and radiology departments.
