Summary

As an experienced Directional Driller Engineer with over 20 years experience working in remote areas with a fast pace environment, I've excelled at the ability to pivot as priorities change to ensure deadlines are achieved. In my management role in directional drilling, I've had the pleasure of working effectively with diverse groups. During the off seasons in the oil and gas industry, I was fortunate to have the opportunity to work at a certified seed grower farm where I operated all machinery including 3 tonne and transports for grain hauling. Further I had an administrative role with Tikinagan Child services serving Indigenous Clients as well a clerical role with Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Wen Hospital. With my profuse work experience, I have developed unparalleled initiative, and the flexibility to work independently or in a team environment.
