Northern Ontario
I’m the Manufacturing Consortium Manager for Northern Ontario, where I coordinate and deliver programs that support the competitiveness and growth of Canadian manufacturers. In my role, I connect industry leaders, facilitate best-practice sharing, and help members turn strategy into actionable improvements.
I’m passionate about helping manufacturers strengthen their operations and workforce resilience. For me, the most rewarding part of this work is seeing members use EMC’s network and resources to innovate, grow, and thrive in an increasingly competitive landscape.
Please connect with me, anytime, to discuss anything manufacturing!

Upcoming Events
The Future of Ergonomics
As workplaces evolve through changes in technology and work organization, ergonomics programs are being challenged to adapt. Workers are no longer confined to traditional desks and fixed workstations— they work from home, in vehicles, at hoteling stations, and on mobile devices, introducing new physical, cognitive, and psychosocial risk factors that are not always addressed by traditional ergonomics approaches. At the same time, emerging technologies such as AI-based video task analysis, wearable sensors, and exoskeletons promise new ways to identify risk and enhance human performance. But what do these tools truly offer?

Pourquoi miser sur le commerce interprovincial pour diversifier ses marchés?
Aujourd’hui plus que jamais, les manufacturiers canadiens se retrouvent dans l’un des environnements opérationnels les plus complexes dont on se souvienne. La volatilité du commerce mondial, l’imprévisibilité des droits de douane, les tensions géopolitiques, la hausse des prix de l’énergie et la pénurie de main-d’oeuvre qui persiste ne sont plus de simples turbulences passagères. Il s’agit de réalités structurelles qui redéfinissent la façon dont les entreprises manufacturières s’organisent, planifient leur stratégie et orientent leurs investissements à long terme.
