With a lifetime of experience in the travel industry, I've taken my skills and knowledge to the streets (literally and figuratively) to help grow businesses, including my own start-up. Having worn almost every hat in tour companies small and large, I have helped my employers expand with continuous sales campaigns and development of new and innovative products to keep up with an ever evolving marketplace.As a way to apply my knowledge and create employment opportunities for my friends, I started a hobby grass roots walking tour business with a former colleague. Together we have managed to reshape the sightseeing industry in Toronto and Vancouver, elevating the profile of walking tours and acting as unofficial ambassadors to thousands of visitors coming to Canada every year.My experience in travel and technology led me into the fast-paced world of information technology. As an analytical and results oriented person, I managed to expand my knowledge base to include all aspects of the software development life cycle, and leveraged my experience and interpersonal skills to overcome immense challenges and provide successful results to clients. Most recently my career path has taken me into the field of digital direct marketing. I work with clients to develop targeted digital content and lead sourcing campaigns to continuously grow their business. I work with world-class brands such as CIBC, AIR MILES, Hudson's Bay Company, Ford, Rogers, Amazon, H&M and more. I'm an articulate, and versatile professional with experience in tourism, business analysis, change management, program and project management. I'm a problem-solver with strong communication and interpersonal talents that facilitate work with clients and collaboration with peers. I'm a self-starter who is adaptive, organized and skilled at multi-tasking, meeting deadlines, and communicating with all levels in an organization. If you are looking for innovation, growth & results then we should grab a coffee.
