Birthplace:
I bucked the popular trend of moving to Vancouver for university by heading to Ottawa (reverse migration?), where I crammed a three-year program into four years. I'm still not positive where that U of O degree is, but I'm pretty sure I graduated.
I received my diploma from BCIT in 1995 and managed to fall into a job at Global TV's Sportspage, where I learned a lot from the likes of Barry Macdonald, John Shorthouse, Don Taylor, and Dave Randorf.
Abbotsford, British Columbia
Birthdate:May 6, 1970
First media job:Associate Producer for Global Television in Vancouver, 1996.
Career highlight:Meeting and working with John Garrett will always be at the top of this list. Also, covering the Canucks run to the final in 2011 was very good (except for the end). Working at the 2000 Bell Canadian Open as a course reporter, where the crowds were huge and the energy was unbelievable.
Special interests/hobbies:Golf, running, reading, writing, and playing any sport (or watching them on TV for that matter).
Bio: You know the old saying, 'Behind every sports journalist is a frustrated athlete?' It certainly rings true with this Abbotsford, British Columbia native. I played every possible sport growing up, only to discover that I wasn't gifted enough in any of them to continue much past the twelfth grade.I bucked the popular trend of moving to Vancouver for university by heading to Ottawa (reverse migration?), where I crammed a three-year program into four years.
