PROVEN LEADERSHIP
For more than 40 years, I have had the privilege of working with people across a variety of sectors: media, business, education, government, fashion and film.
Those experiences have shown me that good government leadership is built on integrity, collaboration, and putting people first.

PARKS & GREEN SPACES
I grew up in a hardworking family with 4 siblings, with small-town and rural roots that taught me the importance of responsibility, community and looking out for one another.
Together, we have built a life grounded in connection, shared values and a deep appreciation for the people, pets, and places we call home.
Along the way, I was fortunate to build a life with Martine, whose own background, perspective, and passions have enriched the way I see family, neighbours and our surrounding community.
