I’ve worked in product design and innovation for most of my career delivering projects that have exceed client expectations. My approach has been shaped by almost 20 years working at the forefront of technology and design. Most recently I’ve have begun a new role as Director, Internet of Things and Business Development for Brookfield Global Integrated Solutions building out the portfolio of IoT products for the company. I also am the Co-founder of Incite Design (www.incited.ca), a start-up architecture firm bringing the best of design and innovation together. I've helped large clients realize their business vision and objectives through the lens of understanding deep customer needs and improved user experience. Some of the initiatives I lead include an innovative trial platform to easily and cost-effectively gather comprehensive customer feedback using interactive tools; and an internal process to integrate research, intensive customer understanding and market/competitive knowledge into the enterprise product development environment. Formerly I was Director of Product Innovation at the Toronto Board of Trade. I joined the Toronto Board of Trade from LoyaltyOne [AIRMILES Reward Program] where I was responsible for corporate development and partnerships. Previously I was with Bell Canada as Associate Director of Innovation and Strategy in the Consumer Services area, part of the Consumer Segment. Bell's Consumer Segment also houses the Sympatico portal and ISP, and provides wireline local telephone access with over 13M lines in service to homes and businesses across Canada. Prior to this position, I was a member of Bell's New Product Introduction team, developing products and services for the Enterprise market. Two key projects that I managed included an innovative National Dial Point of Sale network, and Security solutions for large enterprises. Before embarking on graduate studies, I worked as Technical Specialist at Excite Canada/@Home Canada where I lead and managed the start-up of their streaming media solution, as well as the ongoing video production and content delivery operations for Canada's largest broadband cable network. Forming the foundation for his work at Excite Canada was my position as Multimedia Editor for Discovery Channel Canada's groundbreaking science and technology portal, EXN.CA. I was responsible for co-ordinating content and features from the television network, and adapting and enhancing them for use on the World Wide Web. I have had the pleasure of contributing to the conversation about innovation, idea extraction and the latest advances in interactive development over the past number of years, writing for blogs such as PC World Canada and speaking most recently at Queen’s University and the Canadian Consumer Insights and Trend Spotting Conference. I received an MBA from Queen’s University, a Bachelor of Architecture from the University of Waterloo and a Bachelor of Science from the University of Toronto.
