At PMI Southwestern Ontario Chapter, I deliver member events and programs for a 600-member association. I built a repeatable ClickUp system that cut event planning time by 50%, and grew attendance by 10% through structured planning and post-event improvement cycles.

At Outori Ltd, I delivered 20+ experiential events and multi-location brand programs across 10+ cities, including outdoor concerts with 1,500+ attendees. I managed budgets up to US$350K and coordinated 50+ temporary and contract event staff at peak.

At AmpiFire, I managed concurrent client programs and implementations, then standardized workflows with SOPs, templates, resource planning and reporting cadences to increase team productivity by 25%. I’m PMP-certified and hold an MBA from the University of the East.
