Hello! I’m Paul, a technology leader with over 25 years of international experience in directing successful strategic digital business transformation initiatives. Welcome to this loose collection of occasional ramblings, hacked out on a keyboard mostly from my basement office at home.

Professional Background

I’m currently working in the energy industry as a Head of Business Engagement and Architecture, where I lead the alignment of technology solutions with business strategies across North America. My role involves translating business needs into effective technical architectures and guiding the development of scalable technology frameworks.

Previously, I served in the airline industry as a Head of Technology Strategy and Enterprise Services, where I navigated pandemic challenges, modernized middleware management, transformed architecture teams, and revamped technology operating models to focus on agile, product-oriented approaches.

My experience spans multiple sectors:

  • Higher Education (both in Admin and Research)
  • Aviation
  • Energy
  • Public Sector
  • Financial Services
  • Media
  • Healthcare
  • Retail
  • Non-Profits
  • International Scientific Research
  • Watching ice melt

Why This Blog Exists

I’m getting back on the horse, so to speak, and sub.haus is an opportunity for me to get stuff out of my head and written down. It’s as simple as that.

Beyond Technology

When I’m not immersed in technology strategy, I enjoy spending time in the Canadian wilderness. I’m a certified wilderness and remote first aid responder, which speaks to my interest in being prepared for any situation—both in technology and in life.

I’m also proficient in French, published in academic journals, and continue to maintain an active interest in research and education alongside my professional career.
