I started in the Engineering program at NSAC in 1975. I eventually graduated with a Degree Course Diploma from NSAC in 1980. I then went to the University of Guelph and graduated from there with a BSc. Agr. Degree in 1982.

Then off to Alberta to work in agriculture. Moved back to Ontario in 1986. Today, I live in Southwestern Ontario in the town of Mitchell. I help manage the operations of a three location New Holland Ag & Construction Equipment Dealership that is based in Mitchell. I met my wife, Laura Taylor, a potter, in Guelph and we married in 1997. We have two wonderful sons, Roan (1998) and Luke (2002). Both of them want to be New Holland technicians when they grow up!

One of my NSAC Engineering classmates, John Rudderham, is also in the dealership business in this area - as one of the owners of a multi-location John Deere Dealership. It's a small world.
