I believe in both personal and professional transformations. With over 30 years of executive experience in Information Technology spanning various business sectors, my journey serves as a testament to my adaptability and ability to embrace change.

Throughout my career, I have been known as both a builder and transformer of management teams. My career began in online banking and later extended into the utilities arena, where I assumed roles such as Director, Vice President, and CIO in both Edmonton and Calgary. My willingness to embrace new challenges has defined my career and embodying a can-do philosophy. This philosophy lead me to many new technology initiatives, marking milestones such as online banking in the 70’s, desktop computing in the 80’s, distributed computing and enterprise resource planning in the 90’s, facilitating business strategy and Y2K preparations, and later shifting focus to e-business.

My strategic ability to apply emerging technologies to address high-level business challenges has positioned me well as a business strategy consultant and executive leadership coach. I currently serve as a business strategy consultant and executive leadership coach.

On a personal note, I’ve served as the past National President of the Canadian Information Processing Society and as the past Chair of the Conference Board of Canada Council of CIOs. As well, I reside in Edmonton with my wife and son. Outside of my professional pursuits, I enjoy skiing, golfing, and garden sculpting.
