I grew up 20 minutes from Niagara Falls in a rural house built in the late 1800's. I've spent time living in cities both big and small - Vancouver, St. Catharines, Quinte, Gananoque. I was a tree planter in Northern Ontario for two years and love getting lost in the woods or on my bike.

I'm into history, fiction, sustainability, environmentalism, hoop dancing, cycling and hiking. Always on the look out for good food, good conversation and a pint.
