Dave has led communications and public affairs for some of Canada’s most-known, and the world’s most admired, organizations during historic infrastructure investment and modernization transformations: Amazon Canada’s multi-billion dollar expansion of 20+ robotic and AI driven-sites with 20,000+ employees across Canada, Purolator’s $1B Delivering the Future supply chain modernization and culture plan, and Maple Leaf Foods’ multi-year manufacturing and sustainability overhaul folllowing its listeriosus crisis are a few examples.

He’s led hundreds of crisis management situations and launched products and services in the energy, finance, tech, government, and CPG sectors, while crafting reputation plans for 50+ senior executives and government leaders to strengthen their professional and personal brands.

His comms and engagement philosophy is simple: to make your words matter through purpose, values and action.
