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!

AI Ergo Assist Puts Ergonomics Expertise at Fingertips
Circular Economy
Join EMC members and sector manufacturers for a special presentation on ‘Circular Economy’. Circular economy principles hold immense potential for reshaping manufacturing by offering new perspectives on production processes. Prioritizing resource efficiency and waste reduction, this approach not only minimizes environmental impact but also enhances economic viability.
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?
