About me

Gender Male
Occupation Retired
Location Burlington, Ontario, Canada
Introduction I was born in Southern Ontario and raised in Hamilton, no post secondary school education, worked my way up in the steel mill and retired in a sales management position - I've been happily married for 43 years and have two adult children. For over 25 years I've been part of a great group of guys who have hiked the entire Bruce Trail, cycled many routes in Ontario and the Finger Lakes region of New York State and canoed and Kayaked extensively in Ontario. I'm enjoying retirement immensely but I sometimes miss the challenge of the work environment and the interaction I so much enjoyed with my colleagues, customers and competitors.
