I was born in North Bay, Ontario - moving to Owen Sound, Ontario on my 5th birthday..(you still owe me Mom and Dad). I attended high school in Chesley, Ontario home of "The Cougars" (really, google it). After a few fun years in London, for College and my first job I've had stops in Barrie - back to London, Winnipeg and now Ottawa. I also consider myself a fairly successful CEO/CFO, in partnership with my wife, of TFB (The Family Business), which is just another way of saying we run our family like a non-profit corporation. In addition to the above I am my child’s driver and our dog’s walker.  And in the spirit of being Transparent, Authentic and Open, I admit that I am addicted to weekends and Google..(which also tells me that I am an Associate Professor of Zoology and Heritage Zoologist Oklahoma Biological Survey University of Oklahoma in Norman, OK - busy guy I know).

Thanks for listening.
