The company is also the only communications agency ever to be named the #1 workplace in Canada by the Great Places to Work Institute (2010).

An active volunteer, he is the current Chair of Canada’s National History Society, past-Chair of the Nature Conservancy of Canada, past-Chair of the CPRS Foundation, and past-Chair of the Public Relations Bachelor Degree Program Advisory Committee at Humber College.
