WHO WE ARE
Partner & CEO
Erik Brisson
Erik likes to say that the mark of a good CEO is his or her ability to surround themselves with people smarter than they are. In that Erik has certainly succeeded. When he isn't busy, he enjoys spending time with family and arguing with Amshu about unrealistic things he wants.
Partner & Chief Technology Officer
Amshu Gongal
Amshu is GFI's jack-of-all-trades and master of all of them. If he's not assisting the technical team or working with our clients, you can probably find him arguing with Erik about something unrealistic he asked for.
Partner & Head of Development
Porfirio Mendez Ocampo
When not dreaming of a lifetime supply of hamburgers, 'P' is the lifeblood of GFI Systems. He is not only GFI's longest tenured member, but most knowledgeable.
Office Manager
Sherry Brisson
Sherry comes to us from the world of Provincial Government where she was a lead investigator for Alberta Environment and making grown men cry. She runs the show at GFI, gets things done, and we all fall in line.
V.P. of Business Development
Dan Nadeau
Dan comes with a long history of serving western Alberta companies. He grew up playing hockey and played professionally. When his playing days were over, he coached professional teams overseas. From there, he worked with large organizations that provided industrial products throughout Alberta. When he's not yelling at our development team to get more modems provisioned for his customers, he can be found heavily involved in the community working with developing hockey talent with his DNA Hockey Development company. www.dnahockeydev.com
Director of Science & Innovation
Callum Doolin PhD
Callum comes to us from the University of Alberta with a Doctorate in physics. Callum operates within our 'Special Projects' division of GFI, developing the future. (we are not allowed to say anything else)
QA Specialist
Tristan Swonek
Tristan is an engineering student and full time member of GFI Systems. In his time here, he has taken on some of GFI's more adventurous projects. If you are an existing customer I am sure you have or will be speaking with him to assist you in one fashion or another.
Director of Customer Relations
Emma Doolin PhD
Emma also comes to us with a Doctorate from the U of A. No title would do her justice as she is everywhere, either assisting with client onboarding or working with the 'Special Projects' team. We are blessed to have both her and Callum's brilliance with us.
Marketing Director
Deanna Eng
Deanna is one of the newest members of the GFI team and has hit the ground running, heading up our marketing, on print, social media and more.
Senior Support Specialist
Sudhir Pradhan
Sudhir heads up our customer support, and is usually on the other end of a support email. He also handles our shipping, modem repairs or just about anything else you could ask. We are lucky to have him and we feel our customers are as well.
