Most recognized as TV host/narrator of "Structures" - an award-winning program exploring Toronto's history & architecture - on Rogers TV.

The Entertainment Information Station, Rogers TV, The New VR (now CTV Barrie), 105.9 The Region & the CBC. My work also aired on CNN Radio International.

Years prior, I worked as an entertainment host & line-dancing instructor for a well-known cruise line, sailing to 30+ cities & countries throughout the Mediterranean, Caribbean & North Africa.

Another fun fact: I performed & toured w/ the Montreal Jubilation Gospel Choir for a few years, recorded a couple albums w/ the group (one of which won a JUNO Award in 1995) & even had the unique opportunity to sing at Celine Dion's 1994 Montreal wedding with the 50 member choir.
