Born in Vancouver, 1979, I spent my formative years in the small town of Nelson where I picked up running, bike racing and web design. After completing a degree in Art History and Professional Writing at the University of Victoria I spent two years freelance web designing on Vancouver Island while competing on the local squash circuit. As of 2005 I've returned to Vancouver to pursue a design degree at the Emily Carr Institute or Art and Design.
