I was born in Toronto, Ontario Canada on Christmas day 1974.
I spent most of my childhood moving in and around the southern
Ontario region with my family. I first became interested in
sports, going to see a Blue Jays game with my Grandfather
when I was six years old. Since then, I have grown to love
to play baseball, soccer, hockey, skiing, golf, tennis and
raquetball. Baseball has always been my first love, and every
summer I played and or coached on a number of teams.
In Highschool and University I went on to coach the Varsity
school teams.
In August of 1996, I joined Anadrill Schlumberger as a Drilling
Services Engineer. The lifestyle of working on oil rigs made
it difficult to commit to any organized team. For the next
three years, I moved between the US, Venezuela, Colombia and
Mexico. In 1999 I was assigned to Lafayette LA as a Field
Services Manager. In my first stable office job, I was able
to start playing baseball again, this time together with my
co-workers in Drilling and Measurements. Even though I was
not able to play a lot of sport when I was working as a field
engineer, I was able to develop in other ways: learning about
new cultures and picking up a second language.
My love of sports has always been a release for me. Running
out on a playing field, and getting engulfed in a competition
is the best tonic I know to deal with a long hard day at work.
The sense of comraderie and the joy of playing the game keep
me coming back for more.
