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!

VirtualOctober 21, 2025 at 1:00 PM

The federal government has released draft legislation that could bring the most significant updates to the SR&ED program in over a decade. These proposed changes could reshape how manufacturers access and maximize tax credits. If enacted, the changes could apply to taxation years after December 16, 2024. This means it’s important to act now; waiting until 2026 to review your claims may miss opportunities to capture historic expenditures and strengthen your funding position.
