About Me

I'm a seasoned leader with specialized expertise in developing and optimizing systems through leveraging technology, innovation, and transformational initiatives. My experience spans almost three (3) decades in the public sector, specifically overseeing initiatives within municipal government that benefit over 650,000 residents and 3,500 employees.

As a collaborative strategist, I've successfully led dedicated boards of directors in the not-for-profit sector and bring a compelling blend of talent and vision to every project. My proven strengths include digital service delivery design, business transformation, and extensive experience in information technology management, digital media, communications, and project management.

In my most recent role, I served as Director of Digital Services & Data Management at Halton Region, where I've spearheaded large-scale digital transformations, including the introduction of Salesforce as a core technology platform and the modernization of customer relationship management systems.
