Soon to be 48.

Moved around quite a bit until the early 70's due to father's military work (senior officer with NORAD). Spent a lot of my youth in Washington and Marin Co. California, then moved to Winnipeg, Manitoba with the family.

Did 3 undergrad degrees and a Masters (MBA) at the U. of Manitoba and managed to squeeze in a couple of seasons of racing on the pro ski tour in '78 and '82.

Moved to Calgary in '91 and been here ever since, working primarily in the land development and residential construction industries since I've been here. Currently V.P. of a development company.

Met my wife in L.A. just over 5 years ago (TV producer) and asked her to marry me five hours after we met. She moved to Calgary 3 months later and we just celebrated our fifth year of wedded bliss. No kids. Two crazy cats.
