About

A thirty-year resident of Victoria, I began my journey of becoming a sales professional cutting my teeth in the competitive office supply sales market and finishing with a successful twenty-year award winning tenure in health care sales. Also, for an eight-year period my entrepreneurial side emerged when I developed, operated and eventually sold my own business “Dine In Victoria”.  Along the way I have creatively renovated three homes and helped design and construct two others. 

A husband and father of two adult boys, I have always been an active member in the community, serving with the Victoria Chamber of Commerce, the Canadian Diabetes Association, coaching youth sports with Victoria Night League Basketball, Saanich Fusion FC, Saanich Minor Lacrosse and with the Five-time Provincial High School Football Champions: Mount Douglas Rams. Personally, I enjoy a good round of golf but not the awful handicap.

 If you are looking to sell or buy a property in Victoria, and looking for a REALTOR®, I would look forward to meeting with you to discuss my marketing plans and buying strategies which would be tailored for your specific needs. After thirty years residing in Greater Victoria, I can provide valuable information on particular neighbourhoods, upcoming areas and locations that would best suit your lifestyle. 

                       Your passions are my utmost concerns - nothing short of the Gold Standard”.
