Marketing & Fundraising
By day (and some nights) I develop marketing strategies and manage campaign execution for charities/non-profits that help them raise more revenue and connect more effectively with their donors.

Media & Podcasting
I’ve developed, hosted, and produced 2 podcasts, as well as a number of video-based media projects.
I Play Pickleball
I started my pickleball journey in late summer 2020. I suffered a full achilles rupture on November 30, 2020. Today, I’m sponsored by Engage Pickleball, play at the 4.0 level, and am beginning to compete at the 4.5/Open level.
Professional Speaking
To date, I've spent spent tens of thousands of hours coaching business professionals, nonprofits, post-secondary students, and campaign advocates in the art of professional speaking and communication. I've also delivered sessions on topics ranging from fundraising and marketing ethics to digital storytelling strategy, to social media and e-philanthropy, to personal and professional branding.
