FACTSnet IT Team


Ashley Franck - IT  Coordinator, Soul Wellness Team

I Graduated From King’s University with a BSc. in Computing Science. This Summer I am helping out in a leadership role to develop resources for Soul Wellness. I am also working with the IT group.


Richard Yang - Technical Manager, IT Team

Richard is entering his second year in Computer Science with Honours at the University of British Columbia. During his previous work term with FACTSnet in the summer of 2019 as a Technical Lead, he deployed an effective OCR document scanning workflow that heightened productivity and reduced conflicts. This year, his role as a Technical Manager extends his responsibilities past the creation and usage of critical admin documents, timesheets, and allocations for company data. Richard strives to reinforce his leadership skills by ensuring that all employees and teams can efficiently and securely utilize technology and data in support of their projects. Currently, his major goal is to refactor legacy front-end code across numerous FACTSnet websites to ensure modularity, ease of maintenance, and future scalability.
