I have been living out west for the last 8 years of my life and enjoying Kelowna. It has lakes, mountains, good soil for growing your own food, and great wine.

I grew up playing Lacrosse, Canada's National sport, but I love snowboarding and Scuba Diving just as much. I love camping, the outdoors, going on hikes and getting involved with local communities, villages and culture.

PHILOSOPHY

Take every step as its my last and don't sweat the small stuff.
