During the past five years, I had the opportunity to lead NexGen's project team through the development of the Arrow Deposit in northern Saskatchewan and be involved with major milestones such as multiple mineral resource estimates, the preliminary economic assessment, the prefeasibility study, the feasibility study, operations development, the environmental assessment work done to-date, and multiple discoveries along the Patterson Lake corridor. In addition, and foundational to mineral resource development, I had the opportunity to maintain and establish important local relationships with communities close to the Arrow project resulting in the successful signing of Impact Benefit Agreements with two Indigenous communities. 

Prior to joining NexGen Energy in 2016, I worked as an exploration geologist for Cameco Corporation on projects throughout northern Saskatchewan and Australia. I was also the Chief Geologist at the underground Eagle Point uranium mine, where our team increased the mineral resources threefold while reducing drilling and discovery costs. In addition, while at Eagle Point, we implemented innovative processes that lead to improved grade control, production reconciliation and short-range and life of mine planning.
