I work with organizations that are mission-driven. The mission? To craft effective public policy that accelerates the transition to clean energy as a central solution to climate change. From the production of clean energy to the technologies that use it, I’m passionate about creating economic opportunities, enhancing well-being, and advancing reconciliation while cutting pollution.

I offer a unique blend of skills spanning policy expertise, communications savvy, and political acumen that can help you develop and execute strategies that get results.

My approach to effective problem-solving starts with looking at the big picture: analysis helps us understand its pieces, and synthesis unlocks how they connect, relate, and interact. Once your strategy is in play, ongoing evaluation empowers us to learn what works and what doesn’t, and how we can adapt to make progress faster and more effectively.

Working with civil society organizations, businesses, philanthropists, and governments, I help build bridges and forge strategic alliances.

As with any systemic change, there are barriers to the solutions we need and plenty of people that can help you identify them. I call them the “no, because…” people. As a solutions-oriented thinker, I can help you find and secure “yes, if…” policy solutions that enable progress.

Here’s the lesson from the Bank of Canada’s recent decision to raise its rate: Our dependence on gasoline and diesel doesn’t just leave Canadians vulnerable to higher prices at the pump. It can…

A gas-tax holiday offers relief. Affordable EV leasing could offer an escape.

One of the most persistent criticisms of electric-vehicle policy is that EVs are a solution for people who can already afford them: middle- and higher-income households able to absorb a higher upfront vehicle price, install a charger at home and collect the savings that come from avoiding the gas pump. Canadians who have the most…
