A working journalist for more than 35 years, I graduated from the Niagara College journalism school in Ontario and have been a reporter, sports editor, bureau chief for a daily newspaper and a newspaper publisher at various points in my career.
This includes owning small newspaper in Lumby with my wife, Anne, during the late 1990s before moving back to the Lower Mainland.
A resident of Chilliwack, we have two sons, Myles and Spencer.
