Rooted in agriculture, be it family, farm or banking; I live on our Norwich area turkey and crop farm, work in the region as an Associate Vice President of Agricultural Banking at National Bank.
Professionally, I work in farm financial services, where it has provided a high level of satisfaction to support farm families in their goals of operating profitable businesses while producing quality food for consumers. Utilizing my B.Sc.(Agr) from the University of Guelph and Masters of Agribusiness from Kansas State University provided the educational framework to analyze, advise and encourage strategic thinking about farm business of today and the future. After working directly with farmers for the first 11 years of my career, I accepted a promotion which involves managing, coaching and building the qualities in my team members so they will provide the necessary advice farm businesses require.
