Prior to coming to Humber in 2007, Larry spent 24 years at Boeing Aircraft, four years at The Peel District School Board and two years with CCI Research, the company that administers the College KPI surveys.

While at Humber, Larry has served on numerous committees, including the Joint Occupational Health & Safety Committee, College Council, Marketing Liaison Committee, Orientation Steering Committee, Emergency Response Team, School Convocation Coordinators, Space Standards Ad Hoc Committee, Banner Enhancement Working Group, HRMS Project Consultation Team and the Communication Leads Team.

Larry’s last day will be August 31.

We would like to invite his Humber friends and colleagues to join us to formally recognize his valuable contribution to the growth and success of The School of Applied Technology. Please mark on your calendars, Wednesday, August 29 from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. in room KB 111 (Seventh Semester) to say goodbye in person and wish him well for the next stage of his life. 

On behalf of the Humber community, we wish Larry a long and healthy retirement.
