About Me
I work at the intersection of building automation, data, and systems architecture. With 9+ years of experience across enterprise platforms, startups, and consulting roles, I focus on building open, scalable solutions that translate complex building data into reliable operational outcomes.
This page captures the evolution of my work, thinking, and leadership approach.
Foundation & Early Career
Chapter 1
I began my career back in 2015 with a strong focus on applied building systems, studying Building Systems Engineering Technology at Seneca College in Toronto. The program emphasized hands-on learning across HVAC, controls, electrical systems, and real-world commissioning.
Through Seneca's internship placement, I entered the Building Management Systems (BMS) field early, working directly with live building environments. This experience grounded my approach in practical engineering - understanding how physical systems behave, how data originates, and how design decisions affect long-term operations.
This foundation shaped the way I work today.
Enterprise Scale & Complexity
Chapter 2
After building a strong field foundation, I moved into enterprise-scale systems at Honeywell, where my work expanded from individual buildings to large, distributed portfolios.
As an Application Engineer and later a Team Lead, I worked on complex BMS and analytics deployments, eventually leading regional programs for Honeywell Forge-Honeywell’s cloud-based building intelligence platform. These deployments involved tens of thousands of real-time data points per site across diverse environments such as hospitals, schools, and commercial facilities.
This phase of my career exposed me to the realities of operating at scale: data governance, system standardization, edge-to-cloud architecture, stakeholder coordination, and the trade-offs required to deliver reliable outcomes across heterogeneous building systems. It fundamentally shaped how I think about architecture, execution, and long-term system sustainability.
Entrepreneurial Leap & System Ownership
Chapter 3
We focused on integrating building automation systems with analytics platforms, structuring building data, deploying cloud infrastructure, and operating live systems for clients. Each project required end-to-end responsibility - from system architecture and integration through commissioning, analytics configuration, hosting, and ongoing support.
Working across multiple live deployments exposed the practical challenges of real-world building systems: fragmented data, vendor lock-in, security constraints, latency and long-term operational reliability. This experience built a deep understanding of what succeeds - and what fails -when building intelligence systems leave the lab and enter production environments.
Maturing Leadership & Operational Execution
Chapter 4
Running a service-led company required building more than technical solutions - it required repeatable execution. Alongside system design and delivery, I took responsibility for the operational backbone at Intellisy, ensuring projects could scale without compromising quality
I led small, cross-functional teams across engineering, integration, and analytics, setting clear delivery standards and internal workflows. This included defining service processes, documentation practices, quality checks, and handover models that reduced dependency on individuals and improved consistency across projects within our organization.
Beyond delivery, I managed core operational responsibilities such as client engagement, vendor coordination, budgeting, and project planning. Balancing technical depth with commercial and operational realities sharpened my ability to make pragmatic decisions - prioritizing reliability, clarity, and long-term maintainability over short-term wins.
This phase reinforced a critical lesson: strong systems fail without strong operations, lean management, and scalable execution is as much about structure and discipline as it is about technology.
Strategic Consulting & Organizational Transformation
Chapter 5
As my experience matured, my role expanded beyond system delivery into organizational and operational transformation. I was engaged as a Design Consultant and Project Manager by Voyager Buildings, a building management systems integrator undergoing a strategic shift.
The objective was to transition the company from a subcontractor-heavy delivery model to a fully in-house operation - covering BMS installation, system integration, commissioning, and client training. My responsibility spanned assessment, planning, execution, and capability building.
I led the redesign of delivery workflows, developed standardized SOPs, and helped establish internal technical practices around Niagara JACE integration, field commissioning, and analytics enablement. Alongside process design, I supported team training, vendor rationalization, and performance tracking to ensure the transition was sustainable, not disruptive
This engagement with well-known integrator operating at scale marked a shift in my work - from building systems to building teams, processes, and execution frameworks - and reinforced the importance of aligning technology decisions with organizational structure and long-term delivery capability.
Current Focus & Philosophy
Chapter 6
Today, my work is focused on building WAVVZ - a product-first company shaped directly by the lessons learned across enterprise platforms, service delivery, and real-world system operations.
WAVVZ is architecture-led and software-driven. Unlike my earlier work at Intellisy, which centered on system integration and project-based execution, WAVVZ focuses on developing cost-effective, open, and scalable building intelligence software designed to operate across vendors, deployments, and geographies.
My philosophy is simple and disciplined:
-
Open architecture over vendor lock-in
-
Data ownership and clarity over black-box systems
-
Execution-ready design over theoretical elegance
-
Long-term operational value over short-term optimization
Every decision - from system modeling to deployment strategy - is grounded in a deep understanding of how buildings actually operate in production environments. The goal is not just smarter buildings, but systems that are deployable, maintainable, and resilient at scale.
This portfolio reflects that journey - from field-level engineering to enterprise platforms, entrepreneurship and operations. - and the perspective that now informs everything I build
