My wife Susan and I have 3 boys. Two have played minor hockey at the club, from Cookie Monsters through U18, and all three have participated in the Marlins over many years.

I was a competitive swimmer throughout my childhood and into university. At university I captained the University of Victoria ultimate team to several national titles and also won several Canadian National Championships at the Open and Masters levels. I represented Canada several times internationally, including winning two gold medals and a silver medal over three world championships.

I graduated with a physical education degree from UVic and worked as a teacher for a few years before returning to UVic to complete my law degree. I was awarded the Law Society Gold Medal for highest academic standing in my graduating class. I have worked for 20 years at a law firm in Vancouver, and am now the co-managing director of that firm.

Through my sports and work experience, I have developed the management and leadership skills to help guide an organization like the NSWC, and I welcome the opportunity to contribute to the success of the club.
