As the COO, I lead the EV Charging Infrastructure Deployment, Client Operations, Software Development, and Administration teams. I focus on creating and executing the financial and operational strategy of the company, building and coaching high-performing teams, developing new business opportunities and partnerships, and leveraging technology to optimize costs and processes. I have a proven track record of increasing the value, market share, and customer satisfaction of multiple businesses that I have led, grown, and sold. 7Gen is a technology company working towards net zero targets by accelerating the deployment of light, medium and heavy duty electric vehicles and infrastructure through financing, implementation, and software. Our core offer is EV-as-a-service, or leasing of chargers and vehicles to clients, thereby alleviating the upfront knowledge and capital costs associated with such deployments. We serve clients across Canada and are expanding into the US market.I am also passionate about innovation, diversity, and excellence, which are reflected in my academic background and credentials in industrial relations, innovation governance, and board governance. I am an Executive in Residence at Foresight Canada, where I mentor and support cleantech entrepreneurs. I am also an advisor to several technology startups and have spoken on topics related to leadership, innovation, and cleantech.
