A Brief History of Time

---

I'm a 2nd generation Vancouverite who graduated from Magee Secondary, (father was a Byng/UBC product).  My wife is Paula and daughter, Monroe.  My parents, happily married over 50 years, still call this beautiful City home.  I was blessed with a twin sister, Adrienne, a Physiotherapist with a lovely family residing in Burnaby.  Despite our West Coast roots, we also possess Irish passports.   

Canadian Flight Center

I hold a Canadian Commercial Pilot License, with a Multi-engine and Group 1 Instrument rating for land and sea.  I also possess the same FAA licenses.  (USA)

Culture and adventure.  

I've had the good fortune of visiting Countries across Europe, Asia and South America.   

Of personal interest.

I've taken classes at Kwantlen, Langara, and Douglas Colleges, as well as online classes from the University of Phoenix and Embry Riddle Aeronautical University.

I've been self employed since 2002.  Prior, I worked in the hospitality industry, serving smiles and small talk at Seasons in the Park restaurant at Queen Elizabeth.  I was the Facility Manager at the Vancouver Grizzlies Practice Center in Richmond.  My final job was a charter pilot with Altair Aviation in Pitt Meadows where I would answer phones, fuel planes, feed the owners' wife's dog, and sometimes, fly planes.
