Summary

November of 2020, I attained my Ontario Private Investigator License. Since then I have been relentless in pursuing my new career. I am excited and eager to learn and grow into a successful PI. My over 20 years dealing with government tenders has prepared me for the research I will need to conduct. Have spent over 30 years in the dealing with people from all walks of life, always keeping in mind what each individual client requires. I have a reliable vehicle for all types of work, and I now have a Dual license as a Private Investigator and a Security Guard. Certified in Tactical weapon training through ASP.
