Bio

As the CEO of Career Colleges Ontario, I lead a team of professionals who advocate for the interests and needs of over 280 registered private career colleges in the province. I leverage my extensive experience in government relations, policy analysis, and strategic communications to foster productive and collaborative relationships with key stakeholders, including political parties, media outlets, regulatory bodies, and industry partners.

Before joining Career Colleges Ontario in June 2022, I served as the Chief of Staff at the Ontario Ministry of Colleges and Universities, where I oversaw the development and implementation of various policy initiatives and programs that supported the post-secondary education sector. Prior to that, I was the Executive Director of Strategy at the Office of the Premier of Ontario, where I advised the Premier on critical issues and opportunities, and managed the strategic direction and operations of the office. I hold a Master's degree in Intelligence and International Security from King's College London, and I am well versed in Hebrew and French. I am passionate about advancing the quality and accessibility of higher education in Ontario, and enhancing the recognition and reputation of career colleges as a vital and innovative component of the education system.
