Meet incoming OAPC chair

Q: TELL US ABOUT YOUR BACKGROUND AND HOW YOU GOT STARTED IN THE BUSINESS.

I was born and raised in Strathroy and moved to London in my late teens. After graduating from Fanshawe College in 1989, I started working for TCG Materials Limited as an estimator/project co-ordinator in the asphalt and construction division in London. After eight years, I moved into the role of superintendent and then project manager. TCG Materials was purchased by Dufferin Construction’s parent company in 2001 which is when I joined the Dufferin team. In 2009, I became the manager of the southwest district of Dufferin Construction. Although we have had several different owners and I’ve held several different positions in the company, I’ve worked from the same office in London for almost 34 years.

Q: WHAT DO YOU DO IN YOUR CURRENT ROLE?

As the southwest district manager for Dufferin Construction, I am responsible for all field operations, estimating and financial reporting for my area. My teams focus mainly on the municipal, commercial, and industrial markets in southwestern Ontario. ››
