<br>'''[http://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/0bf04c4e-d2b0-4188-9053-08dc4a7a2b03 Public Reporting on Aquaculture - Incidental Catch]''' <small>Jan 2016 – Aug 2016</small>
I guided, created, maintained Fisheries and Oceans Canada - Aquaculture Management Division reports into the Open Government format (Specifically, Open Data). This involved many hours of research around the nature of the reports, technical details needed to implement, identifying stakeholders and determining the amount of work needed to succeed. After many hours of work, this was successfully implemented on not only this report, but many other Aquaculture reports for the public. This format continues to be used today and in the foreseeable future.

Working closely with our Human Resources (HR) team, the HR Intranet site was redesigned to best serve the users. This involved significant and ongoing consulting with the clients and users to determine how users would look for jobs internally, completely reorganizing the site's Information Architecture to match the user's mental model, working with the current look and feel and assuring that any feedback was reviewed and acted on, if necessary.
