As an on-call firefighter, I have been involved in everything from train/truck collisions to fully involved structure fires. Training is ongoing, striving to meet all ministry standards, as well as to become a more valuable member of the Whitewater Region Firefighter team.

Out of all the work I have done in my life, being a firefighter is the most rewarding job I've ever done.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Having worked with clients and budgets ranging from the small "doing a favour" to full-fledged online communications and marketing solutions, I always bring a valuable addition to any client relationship. Budgets for my work alone have ranged from the simple $50.00 quick scripts to fully integrated, database-driven solutions with on and offline implementations with budgets well over $30,000.00.

With an extensive sales background in retail, advertising and online, I am an invaluable liason between the sales and IT divisions. While a good sales team will deliver a powerful and effective solution for their clients, unless they have had the experience on the development side, there will always be elements that they have missed - the client loses out on the productivity and you lose out on the profit. I provide that essential bridge between maximum profitability with maximum solution efficiency.
