meet Katherine

I’m Katherine Anderson, the principal consultant at Saffron IMG Services.  My career path has led me to diverse roles across universities, public libraries, professional associations, and not-for-profits, helping newcomers to Canada achieve career and educational success.  Today, I support international medical graduates as they transition into Canadian medical practice. 

I love teaching and learning.  I have undergraduate degrees in philosophy and religious studies, a master’s degree in adult education, and certification in TESL and IELTS.  I am also a performance artist with training in public speaking, creative writing, clowning, and voiceover.

After working with IMGs for nearly a decade, I founded Saffron IMG Services in 2021 with the vision of offering bespoke support for internationally trained healthcare professionals whose skills and expertise enrich Canadian communities.

I am grateful to work and play in Calgary, Alberta, on the traditional territories of the Blackfoot confederacy.
