Give 'til it hurts.

That's always been my philosophy.

I wake up every morning with one simple question:

"Who can I help today?"

Helping people isn't just something I do; it's who I am. Whether it's helping a local business grow, mentoring a young entrepreneur, supporting someone who's fallen on hard times, or connecting people with opportunities, I genuinely believe we're at our best when we're serving others.

Professionally, I'm the founder of Smashing Pixels, a digital marketing agency based in Brantford, where I've spent the past 15+ years helping hundreds of local businesses, organizations, and non-profits grow. Along the way, I've had the privilege of mentoring interns, supporting local entrepreneurs, and watching great ideas become successful businesses.

Community has always been just as important to me as business.

Over the years, I’ve helped launch and organize community-focused initiatives including Tweetstock, Grandelicious, Brantford Bites, and Level-Up Academy. I’ve promoted local musicians and events, volunteered with community organizations, supported local sports, and worked alongside countless people who share the same goal: making Brantford a better, more vibrant place to live.

At home, my greatest accomplishment isn't found on a résumé.

My wife, Tabitha, and I have built a busy, wonderful life together, raising seven amazing kids. Life around our house is filled with sports, music, school activities, laughter, and the occasional bit of organized chaos. I wouldn't have it any other way.

I'm a husband, dad, entrepreneur, volunteer, lifelong learner, and go-to church on Sunday kind of guy.

I work hard. I care deeply. I believe in showing up. And whenever I can, I try to leave people, businesses, and communities a little better than I found them.

If we've crossed paths over the years, thanks for being part of my journey.

And if we haven't met yet, I'd love to change that.
