  • VISH Systems Inc.
    • Toronto, Ontario, Canada
    • Project Manager SAP Consulting
      • Jun 2019 - Nov 2020

      This role involved coordinating teams from across the world to deliver SAP/ABAP business solutions in a timely manner while keeping costs low. I was required to prepare reports in the form of PowerPoints, spreadsheets, and work logs for clients and internal audits. As I was coordinating developers across many time zones this job kept me on my toes. I worked in tandem with the sales team to ensure proper budgeting and fund allocation for projects as well as assisting them in communicating development goals between clients and developers. I was accountable for project scope, outlines, delivery schedule, and budgeting. Show less

    • Graduate Teaching Assistant
      • Sep 2017 - Dec 2018

      Being a teaching assistant has been one of the most rewarding experiences I have ever had. Unlike most TA positions this involves a large amount of instruction. I taught hundreds of students over my tenure and worked meticulously to make sure each student received an excellent education under my tutelage. This position involved a lot of patience, tenacity, and creativity as I would have to design and execute my own lesson plans.

    • Graduate Research Assistant
      • Jan 2018 - May 2018

      Being a research assistant has given me the opportunity to perform at a more professional level of research. Unlike class work which was very self driven with academic standards, working on a SSHRC application follows rigorous government standards where any deviation could kill the application cold.

    • Canada
    • Financial Services
    • 300 - 400 Employee
    • Project Manager/Scrum Master
      • May 2018 - Aug 2018

      The purpose of this job was to take complex technical ideas and simplify them to the point where someone without a technical background, in this case executives and product owners, could understand its inner workings. During my time at the co-operators I pioneered several workshops and techniques to improve documentation workflow for the software engineers essentially teaching them to document as they developed instead of having to back track. To compliment this role I was also tasked with being a Scrum Master for projects that I already had heavy involvement with. As a Scrum Master I would oversee the agile development process from inception to completion, working in tandem with developers to ensure the timely completion of stories and proper communication to product owners.

    • Junior Sort Manager
      • Nov 2013 - Dec 2016

      Working up from package handler to a managerial position was quite a challenge. During my time at FedEx I would be in charge of managing 30-40 workers per shift, assigning them duties, following up in making sure quotas were made, and most importantly jumping in and working side-by-side with them when necessary.

    • Construction
    • 1 - 100 Employee
    • Lead Hand
      • May 2012 - Oct 2013

      Being a lead hand on a construction site (effectively second in command) was a highly lucrative leadership opportunity. It taught me the true meaning of hard work having worked long hours in extremely harsh environmental conditions. Scaffolding gave me perspective in a way no other job could have, working a blue collar job has helped me become a better person and employee.

  • Whiteoaks Construction
    • Mississauga, Ontario
    • General Construction Worker
      • Apr 2011 - Apr 2012

      Everyone needs a job while they work their way through University. I opted to go into construction over more traditional jobs. Construction provides a lot more opportunities to learn as well as excellent pay although much more taxing than other part-time positions.
