Born and raised in Vancouver, I've always loved designing and building things. My dad is a high school technology / robotics / computer teacher and my mom is an artist, naturally I've ended up somewhere in-between with skills & abilities from both worlds.
Aside from my work I love listening to the Blues, playing my guitar, snowboarding, wakeboarding and traveling to sunny places. I also enjoy working with my hands; so far I've built my own wakeboard, rebuilt a dirtbike engine and plan to one day to build my own guitar.
