As Professor Emeritus in Rural Planning and Development at the University of Guelph, I continue to accept a limited number of speaking engagements, professional development workshops, training sessions, facilitation opportunities, and consulting projects that align with my areas of expertise.

Drawing on more than 40 years of experience in rural planning, agricultural policy, and community development, I work with governments, municipalities, professional organizations, educational institutions, Indigenous communities, and community groups to provide practical, research-informed advice and knowledge exchange that support informed decision-making and effective planning.

Over my career, I have had the privilege of presenting keynote addresses, leading workshops, facilitating planning sessions, and delivering professional development programs across Canada and internationally.
