David C. Carkeek has over 26 years’ experience in business management and entrepreneurial ventures. Dave's foundations were set in the late 80’s as a Senior Program Consultant to the Ontario Hospital Association where he managed a $10 million annual provincial fund to encourage hospitals and health care facilities to introduce and establish management systems, processes and procedures that would lead to more cost effective use of resources. He gained insight into identifying significant needs and trends in the industry and oversaw the creation of new policies and corporate strategies to address these needs.

Dave currently resides in Nanaimo, B.C. with his best friend Lucy.
