A little bit about me...

I am first and foremost a family man with two adult children - a son who is a lawyer with expertise in construction law, and a daughter who has a PhD in Developmental and Health Psychology and works at The Hospital for Sick Children. I adore dogs, have two Parson Russell Terriers - Gus and Zoey.

In my spare time, I enjoy cooking, hiking, music, theatre and keeping up with the Toronto Blue Jays and the latest in the city’s cultural scene. I am a creative type, with a flair for design and decor, and readily help advise clients, family and friends with home design and renovation plans.

I have had a long and storied career, spanning 40+ years. I am a successful professional, with deep experience including business development and marketing in the tech sector, establishing and running an art gallery, and a successful run over many years in real estate sales, including pre-construction sales and luxury residential leasing. I have a proven track record of results and am known for providing trusted guidance and expertise to my clients.

In recent years, I have dedicated time in support of numerous charities including CANFAR, the St. Michael’s Hospital Foundation and the UHN Foundation.

I am also a living organ donor having donated a life-saving kidney to my older brother in December 2016. I am a huge supporter of organ donation and the Trillium Foundation.
