About the speakers

Kevin Forestell

Kevin has a passion for solving problems, challenging the status quo and working with great people.
After graduating from Fanshawe College and the University of Guelph in Landscape Architecture, he started what grew to be one of the largest landscaping companies in Ontario, Canada with just his pickup truck and passion in hand. As the company grew quickly in the number of employees and the size of its fleet of equipment, he realized they were facing a bigger challenge: how do you put the equipment to work instead of having it sit in the yard when it’s not being used? From this challenge DOZR was born.
