Home is a sanctuary as it should be! Our boys have grown and flown the coup and my wife and I are left with these two fur babies to help us stay active and alert LOL.  My wife is an animal lover who helped me see how much fun dogs can be. Who knew?

Born and raised in Calgary, Alberta, I embarked on my construction career at the age of 16, motivated by a desire to support my skiing passion. In my 20s, I made the move to Vancouver and have since only returned to Calgary to visit family and friends. It was Vancouver’s oceans that sparked my new passion for outrigger paddling—a sport that not only releases stress and clears the mind but also keeps the body in prime condition.
