Division Chief

Ottawa Fire Services

I began my career in Fire Prevention in 2006 with Ottawa Fire Services and have performed all 3 aspects of Fire Prevention before being promoted to Assistant Division Chief and now Division Chief within.ย  I have participated in many committees to enhance the Ontario Building and Fire Code and ULC standards, for increased life safety for Ontario residents and training of our industry partners.

I have a passion for educating the building owners on the requirements of the Ontario Fire Code to ensure compliance and educating the Ontario residents on how to be safe from fire.

I have been actively working with OMFPOA for over 10 years both at the Chapter 2 level and on the provincial executive, and look forward to my term ahead.
