In 1993 my dad, at the request of my grade 3 teacher Mr. Hall, bought me an IBM PS/1. 

​

It ran DOS with windows 3.1, had 8 MB of RAM, a processor speed of 20 MHz and 60 MB of hard drive space.

​

From that day forward I've always had an unrelenting drive for curiosity, design and technology. Seeing, feeling, hearing and understanding how people experience and design applications and systems.

​

I'm fascinated by technology and the relationships we as humans form with it.

Being part of workplaces across two continents has instilled my passion for understanding people, culture and human behavior - building knowledge around how people work and their interaction with technology.

​

Nothing will ever be quite like the day my dad brought home that IBM PS/1,

but with my work I hope to have others feel as inspired as I did that day in 1993.

Today, I'm proudly working for the Canadian people as a Continuous Improvement  Management Consultant, Service Designer and User Experience Researcher at the Government of Canada.
