Director, Economic Development, Stakeholder co-ordination and strategic initiatives
(506) 853-3532 kevin.silliker@moncton.caDirector, Economic Development, Stakeholder co-ordination and strategic initiatives
Kevin is a community builder by day, and a skilled musician by night. Just like his favourite band The Beatles, Kevin likes to get creative and generate off-the-scale ideas. Kevin is happiest when coaching baseball and hockey and second happiest unwinding after a day of DIY (power tools!) projects. If Kevin’s life were to be made into a movie, his character would have to be played by Ed Helms due to the uncanny resemblance – or, perhaps, it would be the other way around.
