I’ve had the opportunity to help launch three employee idea programs, developed innovation as part of the Strategic Business Unit at Nestle S.A. in Switzerland, and now substantively part of the Innovation Policy team within AAFC. I like to practice what I preach as an innovative entrepreneur at heart, try to be a first-mover, and for example contributing ideas and creating new events for GCWCC.

Although I started my career in international, I’ve shifted towards public service innovation for many years including the Innovation Hubs & Labs, BluePrint and Beyond 2020. I’ve had the opportunity to help launch three employee idea programs, developed innovation as part of a 25-year plan at the SBU at Nestlé S.A. in Switzerland. My experience and passion for innovation stuck with my as I returned to Ottawa, and now I’m a Senior Innovation Advisor. I like to practice what I preach as an entrepreneur at heart, try to be a first-mover, and for example contributing ideas and creating new events for GCWCC as the Campaign Lead for 2023. Also a self-proclaimed futurist, with long time studies in strategic foresight. |
