"Thingamajigs
by Debbie" was uniquely created and produced by Keshet
Productions Inc. using its experienced media and entertainment
team and the resources of our Sister company, Keshet
Technologies Inc., a first in Canada.
Our host, Debbie Moffat,
is the founder of Keshet Technologies Inc. and Keshet Productions
Inc. Debbie is also the 2005 winner of the Sara Kirke Award,
as Canada’s Leading Woman High Tech Entrepreneur of the Year.
For the past three decades, Debbie has been an icon for the
entrepreneurial spirit as a business founder, executive consultant
and a community leader.
Fluent in Hebrew, Japanese and English, Debbie has consulted
for prominent organizations world-wide, such as the Government
of Canada, the United States Federal Government, a number
of state and municipal governments, AMDOCS, BMW, Gateway,
Lucent Technologies, Trane and Pepsico. Her success has been
based on a personal philosophy of people and community wellness.
Debbie is not just a business woman; she is also a family
woman and an animal lover, owning eight dogs. When Debbie
is finally ready for some fun and relaxation, she turns to
one of her greatest passions, woodworking and working with
power tools. "I’m always making things that don’t necessarily
fall into a particular niche. They’re just Thingamajigs. It’s
what I’ve always called them – Thingamajigs."
"Thingamajigs
by Debbie" is what we like to call, "Do-it-herself
TV." In each episode, Debbie and a special guest have
a blast working on a new project. The guests are successful
women from various walks of life, with their own experiences
to share. It’s "girl talk" and power tools. Some
of Debbie’s guests have included yoga instructor Georgia Morissette,
expert craftsperson Kathy Monkman, and Juno Award winning
performer Sue Foley. Each project that is created on the show
will be placed on EBay with the proceeds going to a charity
chosen with the help of the guest.
"Thingamajigs
by Debbie" is about fun and creativity, but it is
also meant to empower women. "I want to get women in
the workshop. I want to get them using power tools."
Many of the guests have never used power tools before, but
with Debbie’s help, these women learn that power tools are
nothing to be afraid of. "I want to cut through this
notion that woodworking is a male thing. I know for a fact
that once women get their hands on power tools, there will
be no turning back." |
