From broadcasting to building businesses
SpazCraft started in 2011 as one of Canada's early esports broadcasts and grew into a consulting practice. The work has since moved through esports, retail operations and IoT, and gaming is still where it started.
2010 – 2012
Broadcasting
While working as a Resident Assistant at Loyalist College in Belleville, I launched SpazCraft as an esports event host on Justin.tv. I signed a Justin.tv premium partner agreement in March 2011 for the channel "spazcraft", and SpazCraft became one of the first Canadian Twitch.tv partners and StarCraft II broadcasters.
2012 – 2018
The esports industry
SpazCraft became a consultancy, helping brands enter the esports scene. That led to Abios in Stockholm, editing live match data and building partnerships, and then to a COO role at GAMURS before staying on as an advisor into 2018.
2019 – 2020
Retail operations
Back in Canada I took the operator's chair in outdoor retail: Director of Operations at Tackle Depot, and advisor to High Falls Outfitters and Scorpion Outdoors. I set strategy, ran day-to-day operations and built the foundation for online sales.
2021 – now
Ventures and advisory
In 2021 I founded Mapping Network Inc., a Canadian distributor of IoT hardware for decentralized networks like Helium and GEODNET. Since 2023 I've also advised Standard Auto Wreckers in Port Hope on eBay operations, which led to PartSync and a run of software builds in 2026.
