As a highly skilled natural resource management specialist, I have more than 19 years’ experience in strategic planning, project management, operational forestry, environmental policy development, and certification systems management. I have developed trusted relationships with a broad range of stakeholders across government, industry, environmental and community groups. This has enabled me to lead conversations about the future of the forestry industry and implement stakeholder feedback to transform our strategic plans into operable solutions, improve business efficiency and enhance quality assurance systems. Throughout my career I have led productive teams by building a shared vision, strategic collaboration and aligning values and behaviours of individuals that promote increased accountability, professionalism and respect.
