WORK LIFE

I have over 13 years of sales experience, including 6 years as an individual contributor and 7 years as a leader. I have been in the Tech/SaaS industry for the past 8 years and before that, I worked in the sports industry for 5 years. 

I've been on both sides of the interview fence countless times. I've hired talent for 4 different companies for a variety of positions. I know what hiring managers are looking for, the most common questions interviewers are asking, how candidates can differentiate themselves as well as the top mistakes people are making throughout the interview process. 

Throughout my career, I have successfully mentored and guided numerous young professionals in their job hunting and preparation for interviews and promotional opportunities.

HOME LIFE

I am a Dad to two little boys; the best job I have ever been promoted to! Creating a work-life balance where I am able to be an involved and present father is priceless to me. Therefore, if looking for a new job, it would have to support these priorities. 

I am a lover of nature. You can find me in the backcountry of Algonquin Park during my summers. I also have a passion for photography as I continue to learn how to take photos with my SLR camera.

I have a travel bug driving me to be eager and curious to further explore more of the world. Music is my method of therapy and playing ice hockey along with jumping on my Peloton for a spin class are my favourite devices for self-care.

MY PHILOSOPHY

Don’t suffer in silence.

Every player needs a coach.

No job is worth your mental health.

Proper preparation prevents piss-poor performance.

Know your deal breakers.

Identify your key differentiators.

Recruit the recruiter.

Work to live, not live to work.

Get multithreaded.

Hire for attitude, train for skill
