Summary

With 24 years as a BRP/Powersports Technician and 24 years with the Sea-Doo brand, I am a dedicated and driven problem-solver with a passion for the Powersports industry. As a Master Certified Technician for Sea-Doo and Spyder Roadster, and holding technical certifications for Honda and Yamaha, my extensive training covers diagnostics and repair for Sea-Doo watercraft, Can-Am ATVs, SSVs, Spyder Roadsters, and other full-line manufacturers such as Honda, Yamaha, and Suzuki. My experience allows me to manage service department customer interactions, address complaints, and deliver swift and effective resolutions. When not at work, my family and I enjoy being on the water in our Sea-Doo PWC and Switch.
