My Journey
Before making waves in digital marketing, I sharpened my financial expertise as a Financial Analyst in Canada and the U.S., developing financial models that informed critical business decisions at companies like Kubota Canada and EDS. I’ve also contributed to academic research, including a published paper on capital budgeting decision-making in Management Decision, which was awarded ‘Highly Commended Paper' at the Emerald Literati Network Awards for Excellence.

Academically, I’ve traveled from Université du Québec à Montréal to the prestigious Thunderbird School of Global Management, and ultimately to Queensland University of Technology, where I earned my PhD with a focus on global IPO failures.
