I'm a multi-sector market leader with over 29-years of global experience in infrastructure projects development, under diversified procurement models, and with ingrained ability to metamorphose every opportunity. I’m an “enabler” of Go-To-Market (G2M®), Channel-To-Market (C2M®) and Multi-Sector Marketing (MsM®) Strategies for public and private sectors. My strategic, financial, political and regulatory knowledge allows me to work with ‘C’ level executives on business objectives.

In the capital projects’ advisory role, I guided structuring pre-market and in-market activities up to financial close, followed by program delivery including managing contracts, risks, changes, claims and dispute resolution teams.

I’m a trusted procurement & control advisory source for traditional & alternative procurement (PPP/AFP, IPD, PFI, IPP, EPC, TKP, etc.,) and delivery of multi-billion-dollars social & economic projects.

My in-depth market competencies i.e., market intelligence, clients’ acquisition, partnering & channel strategies and stakeholder management, allowed me to dwell in over $50B capital projects since 2008, across North & South America. I instrumented multiple large government to government (G2G) projects from identification to teaming, negotiation to projects delivery, internationally.

The multiplicity of industry exposure allowed me to lead value-engineering & construct-ability for optimum value-creation in Transit (LRT/HSR/BRT/Electrification), Transportation (roads/bridges/highways/tunnels), Power incl. Renewable Gen, T&D, Special (seaports/airports/defense) and Industrial (O&G/Pipeline/Mining).

Within WSP and through other Canadian construction associations, I conduct several in-house and external procurement & contract management training courses, with a view to transfer my knowledge, experience and expertise to enhance future generations’ competence & capabilities in delivering projects successfully.
