I was born in East York, Ontario, Canada and raised in Scarborough (West Hill), Ontario. I attended grade school at St. Martin de Porres in West Hill. My first two years of Secondary school I attended Cardinal Newman in Scarborough and the following three years at Sir Wilfrid Laurier Collegiate in the Guildwood area of Scarborough. Post Secondary was at Centennial College’s Scarborough Campus, where I majored in Marketing.   I started my professional Career working in the circulation department of the Toronto Sun newspaper. I worked there before moving onto the The Toronto Star, where I worked for two years, also in the circulation department. In 1986,  I joined The Prudential Insurance company of America. In 1996 London Life bought The Prudential. London Life’s IT department was outsourced to IBM, at this time I was working in the IT department. I was offered a job at IBM. In 2005 I decided that it was time for a career change, and I decided to look into real estate.  I chose real estate for the flexibility, and to help people make one of this biggest financial moves in their life and find their dream home!   I am currently living in Whitby, Ontario with my beautiful wife Diane and teenaged son Andrew. Oh, and of course our little girls (felines) Molly and Maggie.
