Current Board of Directors

I am an accountant by profession working with the government of Canada Procurement Department. I live with my wife and four beautiful children. We moved to Starling area in 2024. I always volunteer within my community before moving to this area. I would like to contribute to our Starling community by volunteering as one of the Directors.

As Vice President of Rohit Communities, Doug is dedicated to creating top-tier community developments that enhance lives. He leads a team of project managers across Alberta to ensure each land development project meets Rohit’s standards of thoughtful innovation and precise execution.

With over 35 years of experience in land development, engineering, and project management, Doug has held roles as a developer and consultant and worked within municipal and federal governments. This extensive background gives him a holistic view of the development process and an ability to handle complex projects skillfully, allowing him to find beneficial solutions that further regional development goals.

I have lived in Starling since April 2019 and an Alberta resident since 1993. I am putting my name forward for a board of directors position because I believe that this HOA should be tightly controlled by its current bylaws and regulations. Its funding by homeowners should be kept to an absolute minimum cost. The existence of this HOA should be strongly considered, debated and voted on by ALL homeowners in Starling not simply pushed on to homeowners who continue to see their property taxes raised by ridiculous amounts coupled with the utter inaction of city officials to maintain let alone improve our city controlled infrastructure in this area.

 If elected I will to work in having the HOA ended if that is the direction homeowners vote to go; The members of the board have significant responsibility to homeowners in ensuring their monies are spent judiciously and efficiently. A detailed review and reporting of previous Rohit controlled expenses related to this HOA and its direct obligations are an element that has not yet been fully addressed.

I have experience on 2 different condo boards, so I understand the processes that should be employed and adhered to. I have 26 yrs military service retiring in 2009 as a Warrant Officer, 9 yrs as an operations manager where I was responsible for a P&L worth multi millions of dollars. I hold certifications in Project Management, Operations Management, Business Management, I was previously a certified CORE auditor, and Health and Safety Advisor in Alberta. My background has given me a wide breathe of knowledge in the field of human and resource management coupled with process management skills. Being a volunteer board member should be understood and undertaken by people who have sufficient experience/knowledge and understanding of the time commitment required. Ensuring that what is and is not an HOA responsibility is known, published and documented within our FAQ’s, to reduce our administrative costs which are currently excessive in my opinion.

I look forward to working together with our homeowners, HOA and community partners.

Tech guy with a strong background in the non-profit sector. My wife and I recently moved here to raise a family, and this will be the 4th board I’ve served on. I understand there’s an anti-HOA movement among residents, and am interested in evaluating Core Management’s involvement, and whether the HOA’s dissolution is the right direction to take.
