I spent 40 years in the IT industry, most of it in consulting and systems integration. I was a programmer, systems designer, project manager, business manager and Vice President. I was one of Gantthead's first SMEs.

Following 20 year telecommunications career I established Solutions Management Inc (SMI).

Most recently I was elected to Uxbridge council and act as Finance Chair. My passion for project/program management is apparent on the job and in the classroom.
