Since moving with his family to Vancouver, he’s spent the past eight years working in Canada’s commercial real estate industry, leading high-performing teams in both large corporations and startups. De Wet looks forward to the opportunity to collaborate and help closet companies grow.
A particularly meaningful chapter in his career was stepping away from the corporate world to serve a local community in need – teaching basic business principles, financial literacy, and life skills.
Outside of work, De Wet loves exploring B.C.’s natural beauty with his family. And whenever his old rugby injuries allow, getting thoroughly humbled at his local CrossFit gym.
