Collin Maiga
Scarborough
Summary
I’m a dedicated, hands-on professional with a deep belief in learning, humility, and the power of community. My path has taken me from grassroots leadership in Tanzania to diverse roles in Canada, where I’ve thrived in customer service, construction, textiles, and food services. I’ve managed teams, solved problems on the ground, and connected with people from all walks of life. Raised in Tanzania, I witnessed daily challenges that inspired me to lead by example and give back to others. That upbringing has stayed with me and shaped my passion for service, mentorship, and teamwork. In my recent roles as a Supervisor and Customer Service Representative, I’ve led operational improvements, built positive customer relationships, and guided team members toward shared goals. I approach every task with consistency, humility, and the mindset to make a positive difference.
