After completing my Bachelor of Mathematics in Operations Research with a minor in Computer Science at the University of Waterloo, I founded CCI Research with the vision of becoming a leader in providing actionable, evidence-based research solutions. While running and growing CCI Resources for over 25 years, I have successfully made CCI Resources a well-known and trusted source of specialized expertise.
As the CEO and Founder of CCI Resources I provide guidance and direction in all facets of the business including survey research methodology, operational procedures, and customer service. I have always believed in providing the highest quality services at a very reasonable price.
My major accomplishments include participation in many large Ontario-wide post-secondary provincial surveys since 1993 including student, graduate and employer surveys pertaining to Continuing Education, Full-time Post-secondary, Apprenticeship, and Private Career Colleges. I have successfully extended the business to other Canadian provinces, to other sectors and applications which make use of our skills and help meet client needs.

Back to teamI joined the CCI Resources team in 2002. Currently, as Director of Research, I oversee all staff and research projects at CCI Resources. I have extensive experience and expertise in designing research strategies and collecting and analyzing quantitative data. With respect to qualitative research projects, I have facilitated numerous focus groups and am proficient at developing and refining appropriate scripts. I am also a key contact for many of our clients which allows me to apply my consulting and analytical skills to ensure that CCI Resources meets and exceeds their expectations.
Throughout my years of graduate training and subsequent professional activity, I have written and edited many scientific reports for university faculty, hospital staff, committees, and other agencies. I obtained my Ph.D. in Psychology at the University of Manitoba in 2002, where I worked as a researcher in cooperation with several faculty members to design research strategies and collect and analyze data for a broad range of research projects. I also held a number of research positions before joining the CCI Resources team which helped me refine my unique set of research and analytical skills.
I am most proud of my graduate education and my family, earning a doctorate while raising two wonderful children.
I am originally from Winnipeg and moved to Ontario to escape the snow (it didn’t work). I enjoy travelling with friends and family, and someday hope to tour Europe.
Back to teamIn early 2015 I joined CCI Resources initially in a consulting capacity and later in the year took on the role of President. It has been an exciting start since joining the company as we have seen tremendous growth in our core businesses while at the same time I have enjoyed being a part of the early stages of our expansion into new business areas such as Information Management, Employee Engagement and Contact Centers services.
Over 25 years of executive and senior management experience in Marketing, Sales, New Business Development, Business Operations and Customer Service within one of the World’s leading technology companies. A wide range of education and skills developed in the office productivity and consumer technology industries. Coupled with my business background I’m a graduate of Queens Universities Executive Program, IMD Universities Executive Development program and Mohawk College’s Business Administration program.
