PROFESSIONAL BIO

 

I am an accomplished leader with extensive experience in the energy industry, specializing in marketing, communications, and government relations. With a proven track record of leading successful multi-million-dollar marketing campaigns, I have effectively advocated for Canadian oil and gas both domestically and internationally. My passion is in promoting a balanced, fact-based discussion around the global energy mix, present and future. 

Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of providing strategic advice and communications products to three Premiers of Alberta and their Cabinet members, as well as leading the development of public affairs strategies for board chairs and members.

As CEO, I 
built an organization from the ground up, establishing a highly respected entity within the industry. The ability to turn complex energy issues into clear, impactful narratives was instrumental in driving positive change and helping to build a credible voice for the energy industry. A collaborative approach and commitment to team success have been key factors in achieving organizational goals and fostering a culture of excellence.

I help companies craft compelling messages for government and public audiences, and assess the impact of their communication efforts by bringing a unique blend of storytelling and data-driven insights. I am passionate about connecting with people on a human level, transforming facts into narratives that resonate and drive action.

I am open to new opportunities where I may add to the work done by organizations and teams, and leverage my expertise to lead, innovate, and advocate.

Public affairs strategy traditionally combines government relations, media communications, issues management, corporate and social responsibility, information dissemination and strategic communications advice.
