About Me

Co-founder and partner at Bonsai Interactive, offering social media, digital and mobile marketing solutions and applications.

I’m also the founder of the 12for12k Challenge, a community-driven social media charity initiative to connect globally and help locally that’s raised over $100,000 since inception in 2009.

My blog is featured in the AdAge Power 150 list as well as Canada’s Top 50 Marketing Blogs, and won the Hive Award for Best Social Media Blog at the 2010 South by South West festival.

I’ve worked with some of the biggest companies in technology, digital and consumer, including RIM, Microsoft Canada, IBM, Ford Canada, FedEX, Scotiabank and LG Electronics.

I’ve spoken at TEDx and am regularly quoted in publications and news media, including Marketing Magazine, Canadian Marketing Association, Philadelphia Inquirer, Life & Style Magazine and City News Toronto.
