What was the most fulfilling project you ever worked on, and why?
Chairing the Aboriginal mine Training Association in British Columbia. Our organization succeeded in bringing over 2000 First Nations people into the work force, leading them to greatly improved opportunities and lives.
What has been the most memorable experience of your career?
The first discovery drill hole for which I and my team were responsible. A massive sulphide intersection with high grade copper over 40 meters. Champagne corks flew!
