As an experienced technology leader with over 15 years in consulting, I have an established track record of helping businesses grow through strategic advisory, securing government incentives, and managing complex regulatory processes. Currently, I am leveraging this expertise as CEO of Cyber Security Global Alliance, a new non-profit focused on strengthening Canada’s national cyber defenses.

Prior to this role, I held several senior management positions delivering sourcing and engineering services, most recently as Senior Manager at Deloitte where I guided clients through SR&ED credits and other funding opportunities. With a background in both computer science and electrical engineering, I understand the technical requirements of innovators while also speaking the language of business.

Throughout my career, I have successfully managed multi-million dollar project portfolios, securing over $10M in awards for clients through meticulous research and experience liaising with tax authorities. Whether it’s maximizing a technology SME’s growth potential or ensuring a major corporation’s compliance, my leadership has produced quantifiable results. With a drive to build high-performing teams and penchant for taking businesses to the next level, I am well-equipped to deliver value for your organization as well.
