Adventurer ☛ idea generator ☛ sustainability advocate ☛ entrepreneur of change, I’ve forged my own path as a start-up founder with a passion for renewable resources and social responsibility. I’m the CEO of a containerized Green Ammonia company based in Canada with expanding operations globally. My efforts to bring about environmental change started in 2000.

Our booth sat next to Ford Motor Company at the Canadian Auto Show. 50 test drives: 50 orders! Next goal – produce an electric Low-Speed Vehicle (LSV), thus began the ZENN brand – Zero Emissions No Noise. We sold vehicles in the US and Canada. I now head FuelPositive Corporation. We have a great, committed and growing team and firmly believe innovations in enabling global food security and energy storage will have a tremendous impact on our global environment. ⏩ CONTRIBUTIONS TO ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY (so far…) ► Launched 1,000 low-speed electric vehicles long before the industry caught on; many still on the road. ► Developing solid-state capacitor and energy storage technologies. ► Acquiring and Developing breakthrough containerized on-farm ammonia technologies. ⏩ MEMORABLE MOMENT ► Seeing ZENN win the Global Michelin Challenge (against top auto brands)! ⏩ CURRENT BOARD APPOINTMENTS ► Vice Chair – ZMC (since 2006) ► Board Director and Chair – FuelPositive Corp.
