As the youngest of four children
raised in smalltown Brockville,
Ontario, I was afforded a lot of
time to develop a rich imagination
and creative personality  –  always
colouring, but rarely within the lines.  
Never a fantastic student, I clung to
the subjects which allowed me a
little more freedom of expression,
such as Art, English and Creative
Writing, while shying away from
Mathematics and History, subjects
with sets of hard and fast rules
and – worst of all – questions with
only one answer.

I never went out of my way to pick
Up a camera until after high school
While on a year-long Creative Arts
Course at Sheridan College in 1987.  
The course itself was not photo-
Graphically intense, touching only
on the basics.  It was more about
the experience:  first time away from
home, in a place where no one knew
me; an opportunity to re-invent
myself.  (I won’t go into details,
but I don’t recommend it.  However,
neither do I regret it.)
