Devon is a licensed carpenter. He got into carpentry right out of high school and gained lots of residential and commercial experience in his first 11 years in the industry. He got his carpentry license right before turning 22 and represented Local 93 at the apprenticeship competition in Blue Mountain in 2018.

Devon was promoted into leadership at 25 and immediately fell in love with all things leadership.

Devon and his wife Taylor bought their first home at 21 and immediately started renovating it. Within a couple years they sold that house and bought a duplex and vacant land to build their dream home. After renovating the duplex, selling it and building their dream home Devon and Taylor now live in a small town south of Ottawa.

In 2023 Devon wanted to help other construction workers succeed. He founded BadLeader which is a free resource and community to assist with self development of construction workers and becoming the best versions of themselves.

Devon and Taylor have three children- Maverick- 6, Lennon- 4, and Callen- 1. Living in a small town they enjoy family time outside ATVing, having campfires and biking.

Devon is an avid reader and learner. He loves to bang his head to hardcore music and you could see him a the metal show surfing the crowd or hanging from the rafters.
