Experience across technology, consulting, business ownership, and real estate.
Systems & Technology
Started in software testing and system integration, working on reliability, process improvement, requirements, and practical technology implementation.
Consulting
Worked with organizations to understand complex systems, identify what was driving performance, define measurable outcomes, and make better decisions using the data and information available to them.
Business Ownership
Co-founded and helped lead a business intelligence, analytics, change management, and system integration firm, managing client relationships, budgets, teams, and project delivery.
Healthcare & Public Sector
Completed projects for organizations including Hawkesbury General Hospital and Eastern Lynn, supporting reporting, billing, operational decision-making, and performance improvement.
Private Sector & B2C Work
Delivered work for private companies, including business-to- consumer organizations, where practical data, operations, and customer-focused decisions mattered.
Real Estate
Returned home to partner with family and help people move into and within our community as a Real Estate Broker.
Experience that translates to City Hall.
Prior to returning home to Peterborough to raise my family, I co-founded and served as a director of a consulting firm specializing in business intelligence, data analytics, and organizational change.
Organizations brought my team and me in when they wanted to understand a problem, improve performance, and make better decisions using the information available to them.
My work involved projects across healthcare, grants management, supply chain compliance, retail logistics, and private industry. It required bringing together people with different perspectives, understanding complex issues, managing budgets, and focusing on practical solutions that delivered measurable results.
I believe those same skills are valuable at City Hall. Good decisions start with listening carefully, understanding how the system actually works, asking the right questions, and being clear about the outcome we're trying to achieve. They also require understanding incentives, weighing trade-offs, and using the best information available to determine whether a decision is actually producing the results we expected.
Since returning to Peterborough, I've built my career locally, raised my family here, and become deeply involved in the community. I believe that combination of professional experience, local knowledge, and genuine investment in Peterborough's future puts me in a strong position to represent residents and help guide the city in the right direction.
Supporting organizations and activities that strengthen our community.
