As an infrastructure analyst[1], I work on long-term infrastructure planning, infrastructure asset management, green infrastructure, and capital budgeting.
Enhanced and manage the capital planning data model, process, and tools including database design, analytical products, report generation, and analyst training. Included collaboration with other groups to codify, document, and explain the Province’s capital planning process
Lead analyst in creating government-wide best-practices guide and reporting requirements for infrastructure asset management. Included consultations with all capital ministries and the management of external consultants
Rewrote Infrastructure Planning Guidelines to streamline and focus requirements. Included consultations with and training of IPPD and line-ministry staff
Provided estimates of asset renewal spending and developed policy options for asset management to support development of Building Together, the Province of Ontario’s ten-year infrastructure plan
Developed, released, and evaluated responses to a Request for Proposals for an analytical framework to optimize infrastructure investments across asset classes
Prepared sole-source procurement materials, third-party contract, and transfer payment agreement for the OGRA Municipal DataWorks project
Developed, released, and evaluated responses to a Request for Services for asset management training
Developed Green Energy Act Greening Government Facilities Minister’s Directive and LGIC Regulation to establish the government’s green building policy
Developed the government’s climate change adaptation policies for infrastructure
Represented the Infrastructure Policy and Planning Division at several inter-ministry and national groups, including the Association of Municipalities of Ontario, the National Asset Management Working Group, Engineers Canada, and the Conference Board of Canada’s Leaders Roundtable on Climate Change Adaptation
Treasury Board Capital Analyst for the Ministry of Government Services
Provide advice, training, and mentorship for analysts throughout the division
Received MOI Innovation award as a member of the Municipal Infrastructure Strategy Team
Received EDU Prix REALM Award as a member of the Education Facilities Condition Assessment Program
Received MEI Star Synergy Award for participation in the Provincial Municipal Fiscal Service Delivery Review Modelling Team
Received MEI Leading by Example Award as a member of the Capital Review and 10-Year Infrastructure Plan teams
I operate a freelance, consulting business that helps clients solve complex problems. My skills and experience as an analyst generated ten contracts over the last few years.

As a Postdoctoral Research Fellow I had the freedom to pursue several innovative research agendas as an entrepreneurial scientist.
My Doctoral research laid the foundation for my subsequent work and required the same skill set. In this context, my “clients” were a six-member thesis committee.
