Gabe is an astute go-getter with great relationship building skills. Gabe was in my marketing class and contributed good examples and insights.

Danielle Rockel

As a competition coach at Langara, I was part of selecting Gabe to represent Langara as the CEO and CFO of the Junior Team at the Western Canadian Business Case Competition. The Western Canadian Business Case Competition is a very intensive business simulation where students are expected to take on specific executive roles with the objectives increasing shareholder value through strategy, decision making, problem solving, financial analysis, market analysis, operations, teamwork and leadership. Gabe was very effective in his leadership role during the competition. As CFO, his ability to re-capitalize the balance sheet, allocate capital efficiently, and navigate debt obligations by budgeting effectively was critical to the team’s performance. As CEO, Gabe successfully led the team through developing and implementing the corporate strategy, effectively making major corporate decisions, and skillfully liaising with shareholders during the competition. Gabe’s proactive attitude was demonstrated by working long and unpredictable hours while keeping his other team members motivated. In addition to paying attention to detail and being accountable for his own contributions, Gabe also went out of his way to assist some of the more inexperienced members with understanding their tasks by explaining concepts and spending time developing a strategy to execute with each of the members in the group. The team went on to win several awards during the competition. Gabe’s devotion and dedication to his teammates was very much appreciated, and it made my experience as their coach rewarding and memorable. Gabe was a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend him in all of his future endeavours.
