I am a graduate of the Class of '77 at the University of Waterloo, Waterloo, Ontario. I have been practicing my profession in Athabasca since 1978. I was also in Lac La Biche until December 2011. I have thoroughly enjoyed living in Athabasca and watching this town grow. I have enjoyed community participation including minor hockey involvement and being a long-standing Rotarian. This participation has given me the opportunity to donate and help in significant fundraising activities including funding for the Multiplex, Rotary Way, Spray Park, and other worthwhile improvements to our community. Hobbies and activities are many including fishing, Saturday 7 a. m. shinny hockey, golf, tennis, pickleball, curling and watching the grandchildren grow.
