The Warm Up Weekdays 3-4pm & London in the Afternoon 4-6pm


OK, so here’s my life in a nut-shell. 

Born and raised in Scarborough, Ontario (Don't let the media reports confuse you. It's actually a very nice place), I eventually moved to St. Catharines to get some of the edumacation I hear is so important.  After 4 years at Brock University, and meeting the best dame I’ve ever  had the pleasure of meeting, I got my first real “grown-up” job. 

I used every ounce of my English Degree to secure a position as a facility insurance underwriter….wait…what?  After 2 years of sitting in a cubicle checking my email for 4 hours a day, I went to Humber College to do some radio learning, then off I went to be part of a morning show in Niagara Falls.  Once I realized I hated mornings, I moved to be a news anchor for one of CJBK’s sister stations in St. Catharines. 

Then I got the “Call up” to help Stubbsy out on London in the Afternoon, and it’s been fun ever since.  I’m married, have 2 sons, and consider London my home...and I’ve never been happier in my life.
