I have worked in the Real Estate industry for the past 20 years, in Toronto, Vancouver and Victoria, and have many real estate contacts in those locations. In Victoria I have been the managing broker for Sutton West Coast Realty since its inception and continue to work in both management and sales. I am an ex-Aussie and have been known to skip a part of the Canadian winter by flying South to my hometown in Albany, Western Australia or to some other warm and sunny locale. My current recreational interests are walking, ballroom dancing, eating muffins at the Pure Vanilla coffee shop, defending my koi pond against raccoons , herons and mink, learning some salsa dance steps at Cafe Casablanca and recently learning some basic Japanese in preparation for a trip to Kyoto.
