RESEARCH EXPERIENCE

In the first part of my career, in ag marketing, I was a keen user of market research to help with critical decisions. I’ve been helping clients with their important business decisions since joining Stratus in 2001.

BACKGROUND

I worked at a major crop protection company for 17 years, mostly managing major brands before directing the company’s North American herbicide portfolio.

AG CONNECTION

I was raised in the city, but never far from agriculture. I’m part of the fifth consecutive generation of the family to work in this industry. Both sides of the family farm in Manitoba.
