I was the Amateur Radio Lead for Canada’s largest Ham Radio Emcomm response – the 2013 High River floods. I led a team of 55 radio amateurs around the clock until conventional communications were restored.
You’ll find articles about my firsthand emergency communications experiences in the drop-down menu above.
As a result of that experience and several public service events where things did not go well, I have been interviewed and given presentations about those learnings.
