Ken works to develop and implement LMIC's vision for the collection and dissemination of research to support the data needs of Canada's evolving labour market.

Ken joins LMIC after working in education, labour market, and equity research to support evidence-based policymaking. He has published research reports and government evaluations on mental health, the impact of funding structures on government service provision, Work-Integrated Learning, and labour market transitions for new graduates.
