The person
behind the projects.

My career has moved through startups, web design, business development and promotional products, but the work has always centred on the same thing: turning an unclear challenge into something useful, memorable and real.

01 / THE THROUGH LINE

More than a portfolio.

I grew up playing sports, building LEGO and collecting things that probably should have been thrown away. That instinct to build, organize and imagine never really left.

In 2014, I launched a small startup in Greater Vancouver. By 2018, it had grown enough to be acquired. That chapter taught me that creating a good idea is only one part of the job. You also need to sell it, communicate it, operate it and earn people’s trust.

After the acquisition, I returned to digital work and helped businesses shape their websites, brands and customer experiences. That eventually led into business development and promotional products, where the projects became larger, more operational and more complex.

Today, I’m building Brandora Canada and Sea to Sky Digital while continuing to bring those lessons into every project.

02 / FEATURED PROMOTIONAL-PRODUCT CASE STUDIES

Complex programs.
Practical results.

These projects were completed across earlier roles in the promotional-products industry. They demonstrate the strategy, sourcing, communication and fulfilment work behind the finished merchandise.

03 / SELECTED DIGITAL WORK

Before the swag,
there were websites.

Digital design remains an important part of how I think. It taught me to organize information, understand users, create clear paths and make complicated businesses easier to navigate.

05 / BEYOND THE WORK

Life is bigger than a résumé.

I’m a husband and father of twin boys, a volunteer basketball coach and a lifelong collector. I was born in Ontario, but most of my life has been shaped in and around Vancouver.

I enjoy coaching, camping, swimming, cooking, reading and collecting pieces of childhood — graded Pokémon cards, sealed LEGO and whatever else triggers a suspicious amount of nostalgia.

The work matters to me, but so does being present for the people and communities around it.
