Think Forward is my personal and blog on business, technology and being in Toronto in a local start-up. Think Forward is also my consulting company.

My current project is helping lead HomeStars, a Toronto based startup focussed on building a community of homeowners and home service and renovation companies to make the process of home improvement easier.

I have a diverse background. I have built and sold a successful Toronto restaurant & catering company, completed an MBA from Babson College, worked in start-ups and venture capital in Boston and New York City, and spent 5 years an analyst and consultant for The SeaBoard Group, working with companies such as Rogers, Bell, Telus, Avaya and other companies in telecommunication and technology. After leaving SeaBoard Group, I consulted on my own for a year before joining the team at HomeStars.

I also write a blog about my community at Ossington Village and sometimes contribute to the HomeStars blog.
