Software Engineering executive with an entrepreneurial mindset who’s led technology teams from angel investment to 5 M&A’s totalling over $55 million in investments. Providing technology advice to pre-startup, startup, growth, and maturity stages of SaaS companies using my experience “in-the-trenches”. Helping to solve challenges with how to develop people, process, and technology within a product-led organization. Also providing technical due diligence consulting services for private equity search funds.

My passion to inspire others and be inspired by audacious goals is matched by my determination to be lean, efficient, and agile while iterating towards those goals.

I am passionate about current and progressive approaches that aim to advance the software development practice, particularly through lean and agile software methodologies as well as organizational change. For 6 years, I led a local Calgary technology group called the Calgary Agile Methods User Group (CAMUG) which meets monthly and is the focal point for the use of agile methods in the forward-thinking software development community. Now I am based in Toronto (GTA) growing our corporate office in Eastern Canada.

What I do
When I am not doing ‘whatever it takes to get the job done’ (as typical in many growing companies), I enjoy sharing the teachings behind how to build a culture that iteratively delivers high quality, usable software that exceeds customer expectations in a continuously improving process.
