About Me

I enjoy life and find helping people succeed very rewarding.


I offer the benefit of my experience during the covid-19 pandemic as well as prior leadership roles effectively leading remote teams with diverse skill sets across a wide geography. As a road warrior, strategist, manager, director and vice-president in large and smaller firms, I learned what motivates people to give their best.


I have been fortunate to work with multi-generational teams, including Gen Z and Millennials, emerging leaders, cross-functional, multi-cultural and international teams. I also mentor select U of Toronto M.Eng. students taking Management Consulting courses.
