It’s time to unlock Peterborough’s full potential.

I've spent the last several months talking with hundreds of Peterborough residents and business owners.

The message I hear from nearly everyone is identical:

We’re often told We can't. We're told that saying yes to one thing means saying no to everything else.

That's the zero-sum game of scarcity. There's a better question to ask of ourselves and of our city...


What if we could?

I believe Peterborough can be a city of abundance, not scarcity.

But to realize that potential, we need leadership that understands how to build — by building trust, building community, and building an environment of job creation.

We need practical leadership and a clear vision for growth.

We need to bring community energy back to our Electric City.


Welcome to the new Electric City.

I have the experience to lead, but I can’t do it alone.

I need all of us to unlock PTBO’s potential.


I’m a community builder & entrepreneur.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been an entrepreneur.

People like me don't wait for someone else to fix what’s broken — they remove every obstacle needed to get the job done.

In any problem they see an opportunity, and they collaborate tirelessly to achieve their full potential.

I’m also a lifelong community builder, committed to giving back to the city that has given me so much.

Each experience has taught me that the strength of our Peterborough is measured by how we make every resident feel like they belong here:

  • Co-Founder, PTBOCanada
  • Co-Founder, StudioPTBO
  • Co-Founder, Cormor
  • Past Chair, United Way of Peterborough & District
  • Leader, Canadian Canoe Museum "Moving The Collection: The Final Portage" Campaign
  • Trent University Alumni Advisory & Adam Scott Hall of Honour

I'm a problem solver.

You've told me what PTBO needs, and I have the experience, the values and the relationships to solve our city's biggest challenges.
