As an independent consultant I was involved in working with (and strategizing with) senior management teams to assist them in supporting new initiatives to achieve their organization's goals. Varied clients included police services, nurse practitioners, a defense consulting firm, and physical therapists.I also volunteered with a global organization that provides 3D printed hands for children in need. I had an opportunity to help shape and promote their strategy for offering printed hands (for free) around the world. Please see www.enablingthefuture.org

Established Green Gables Winery from scratch. We planted 4000 vines and built a successful boutique winery south of Ottawa in the Ottawa Valley. This adventure was done in my "spare time" while working on Ottawa in management positions! The winery was sold in 2011 to the current owners who have done a wonderful/fantastic job of making the winery one of the best in the Ottawa Valley!
