I make television programs on a range of topics but specialize in health issues, resource management and urban affairs. I was trained in news and current affairs at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and have worked in the news rooms of Canada’s three national networks. I also write for periodicals and newspapers.

Based in Vancouver, British Columbia I have traveled extensively throughout Canada and the United States and will be writing about the places I have visited.
