Why this matters.

Act IThe story

At my core I am moved by projects that serve great purpose. That is where my passion comes from, and why I'm inspired to help you do your best work yet.

From national campaigns to local ones, involving tens of thousands of people or a handful, the not-for-profit space has challenged me immensely, filled my cup, and called all of my skills to the table to be successful.

With hundreds of events in the books, I can't be just an attendee anymore. As a Mental Health Event Architect, I will show you how to design an unforgettable, 5-star experience that drives meaningful impact and raises critical funds for your organization. But that's not all OTO can do.

KROTO, as I call it, is a culmination of the things I'm most passionate about: media, communications, fundraising and helping our community. I can't help just one organization. I want to help many.

I'm based in Niagara, and I work with nonprofits across the GTA, the Golden Horseshoe and South Western Ontario, and virtually across Canada.

Consider this your perfectly timed opportunity.
