Hi, I'm Mike!

If there’s one theme that has followed me throughout my career, it’s communication — understanding people, solving problems, sharing ideas and finding ways to get things done.My career hasn’t followed a single straight line, and I consider that one of my greatest strengths.Over the years, I’ve worked in communications, marketing, broadcasting, operations, project management, customer service, sales, training, digital technology and community engagement. I’ve managed teams and projects, worked directly with customers and business partners, created marketing campaigns, coordinated events, developed digital solutions, trained others and spent more than a few years behind a microphone.That variety has taught me how to walk into a new environment, understand what needs to happen and figure out how I can contribute.What I Bring to the TableAt the centre of my experience is the ability to connect people, ideas and information.I enjoy taking something complicated and making it understandable. I’m comfortable coordinating multiple priorities, working across departments, building relationships with stakeholders and customers, creating content, solving unexpected problems and helping a team move toward a common goal.I’m also someone who likes the combination of creativity and organization. I can spend part of my day developing an idea or writing content and another part working with spreadsheets, schedules, processes, technology or project details.That versatility has allowed me to succeed in very different roles and industries.A Career Built on VarietyMy professional journey has taken me from radio studios and live events to corporate environments, nonprofit organizations, hospitality, sales, technology and customer service.Along the way, I’ve had opportunities to lead operations, manage projects, develop marketing and promotional campaigns, build business relationships, coordinate resources, support customers, work with technical teams and create communications for a wide range of audiences.I’ve also operated my own multimedia business, giving me the opportunity to work directly with clients on branding, marketing, digital content and communications projects.Each experience has added another tool to my professional toolbox.More Than a Job TitleI’ve never believed that a job title tells the whole story about what someone can do.I’m a communicator, problem solver, organizer, creative thinker and relationship builder. I’m comfortable learning new systems, adapting when priorities change and stepping into unfamiliar situations.I’m also fluently bilingual in English and French, which has allowed me to communicate with customers, colleagues, partners and communities across different environments.Most importantly, I enjoy work where I can make an impact — whether that means helping a customer, supporting a team, improving a process, delivering a project, developing an idea or finding a solution to a problem.What’s Next?After a career that has given me experience across so many different areas, I’m still interested in learning, creating and taking on new challenges.I’m particularly drawn to opportunities involving communications, marketing, operations, project coordination, customer experience, stakeholder relations, events, sales, training and team leadership — but I’m always interested in discovering where my combination of experience and skills might be useful.Because sometimes the best opportunities aren't defined by a job title.They're defined by what you can bring to the table.
