I have worked in the Natural Resource Management profession for over 20 years in predominantly environmental management roles in the mining and aggregate industries in the private, public and non-profit sectors in Ontario & BC. For the past 2.5 years I've been working to promote health, safety and compliance in mining, as an Inspector of Mines, with the Ministry of Mines and Critical Minerals. Originally from Ontario, I left Canada in 2017 to volunteer for two and a half years in Madagascar and Kenya with a humanitarian organization, before moving to BC to continue my career in mining.
