About Neil Jensen

Neil is the Chief Operating Officer and co-founder of Steadyhand. Neil graduated from the University of British Columbia in 1990 with a degree in Electrical Engineering. He began his career at B.C. Hydro, where he worked for five years as a Protection & Control Engineer. In 1996, Neil co-founded Habanero Consulting Group, an enterprise web application development firm. Under his leadership as CEO, the company grew to become western Canada's premier web consulting firm.

When his three kids allow him some flex time, he can be found running, skiing, or if the mood strikes, writing code.
