What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can teach and mentor trades students, develop curriculum, and apply hands-on electrical expertise in a safety-focused, collaborative environment that supports professional growth.

I am a dynamic instructor and journeyperson electrician with over four years of teaching experience in electrical trades and skilled technologies, and a lengthy background in hands-on electrical work and technical support. I develop curricula, formal evaluations, and mentor students to succeed in both classroom and competition settings.

My practical experience includes owning and operating a residential and commercial electrical business, journeyperson roles on major projects, and network/technical support positions that broadened my technical skill set. I have trained apprentices, supported NS Skills teams, and implemented safety and QA/QC practices on complex jobs.

I hold a Bachelor of Education, a Bachelor of Arts in History with a minor in Information Systems, Red Seal certification as a construction electrician, and I am currently pursuing a Master of Education in Administration & Policy. I am committed to fostering positive, inclusive learning environments and bringing real-world trade expertise to educational programs.
