I had the pleasure to work with Kade on a variety of marketing projects at Mount Royal University. He's extremely driven, never allowing the team to leave a deliverable to the last minute. His presentation skills are top-notch, and he shows no fear for public speaking. I would definitely work with Kade again, if the opportunity came up.
