ABOUT ME

I recently completed a book about my experience of working 52 Jobs in 52 Weeks. It was published in Spring 2010 by Random House in the US, and Penguin Books in Canada. I set out to find my passion, and learn from an older generation about how they decided on their career paths. All my wages during the year were donated to charity. Read more about the project: www.OneWeekJob.com, or see my interview on the Rachael Ray Show which gives the overall idea:

I am always up for an adventure, love meeting new people and generally like to bring some fun to whatever it is I am doing. I also love to travel and have backpacked throughout Europe on three separate occasions, coast to coast throughout Canada, USA, the Caribbean, and South East Asia.

I spent the fall of 2006 living and taking French courses in Quebec, and would say I have an Intermediate-Advanced understanding of the french language, oral and written. I am now currently living back in my home town of Vancouver, British Columbia.

I have been involved in sports my whole life and played on the varsity mens volleyball team at College. I graduated in 2005 with a Business Administration degree, top of my class with a 4.0 cumulative grade point average and was voted the Class Valedictorian.

PHILOSOPHY

Live. Laugh. Love. Have fun.
