Born in Halifax, Nova Scotia and residing near Halifax all my life, with short stays in St. Pierre et Miquelon and Papua New Guinea. I love skiing and riding my Yamaha Venture Royale 1200cc cruising motorcycle.
I have been married for 32 years to a wonderful, patient woman (now retired) and have 3 grown sons, of whom I am very proud.
I have been a dentist for 28 years and, before that, I taught school in Canada and Papua New Guinea.
I speak English, French fairly well, and I’m in the process of learning Spanish.
I have been in a supper club for 30 years with my wife and 8 of our best friends.
I have just returned to photography after a hiatus of about 20 years and I’m enjoying my new Canon Eos Rebel XSi and all that digital has to offer.
