Embracing learning throughout my career I have achieved academic credentials that have supported my career choices. I hold a Bachelor of Arts Degree (Honours English) from the Royal Military College of Canada. I have earned a Masters of Business Administration from Athabasca University. I have also trained as a Logistics Officer with the Department of National Defence and twice been chosen to attend a United Nations courses which has contributed greatly to my international contracting and stakeholder management capability. Finally, I hold a Masters Certificate in Project Management from Sprott School of Business in Carlton University and successfully trained as an Advanced Project Manager at Lockheed Martin. My recent interest as NSAR realtor has also deepened my understanding of the Canadian housing systems and the contributing factors of social economics, political demographics, legal factors and environments.

These skills are transferable to the criteria for the Manager Infrastructure - Infrastructure Advisory position.
