With over 20 years in education and engineering, I bridge high school foundations to professional mastery for students, tradespeople, and technologists across Canada. My background spans engineering at BlackBerry (RIM), and Johnson & Johnson, plus 15 years advising 4,000+ technical students at University of Waterloo and teaching at Conestoga College. Holding an MEng, MBA (OB), and Adult Education credential, I coach Grade 8–12 math/physics, Red Seal exam prep and trades communication essentials, and Continuous Improvement analytics for professionals—turning complex data into actionable confidence on job sites and beyond.
