What I'm looking for

I’m looking to expand out of Accessibility specifically and move into a purely digital role as a contributor or program manager.

Right now I’m the Manager, Digital Accessibility at Canada Life owning the Digital Accessibility program. I do this mainly through Risk & Governance, but l leverage my strong background in digital as a front-end web developer. To date I’ve contributed a lot in terms of identifying some pain points in the workflows and helping people understand accessibility as I go. My goal is to transition back into a purely digital role so I can go leverage that background more.

Outside of work, I’m a hockey fan and follow s much of the NHL as I can, but cheer on the Leafs. I’ve also collected my ticket stubs over the years and have a large collection which i need to frame. As a hobby, I play PC games as well and keep track of tech trends.
