About

A bit about me…

I’m now working as the Coordinator of the Forest Hill Village BIA (Business Improvement Area), as a photographer, and an urban cycling consultant. I previously served and stepped down as the Director of Communications & Events, and Founding Executive Director of the Toronto Cyclists Union (now Cycle Toronto). As the coordinator of Pedestrian Sundays in Kensington Market, a former Community Advisory Board Member / Photographer for Jane’s Walk, the original ‘Community Animator’ at the Centre for Social Innovation, a Director on the Kensington Market Action Committee, and the first Coordinator of the newly formed Kensington Market BIA, I’ve been an important contributor to some of the most exciting community-based sustainable urban transportation / transformation projects to emerge in downtown Toronto since my return in 2003.  As a published & working event and portrait photographer, I’m often found with a camera in my hand, and am equally comfortable conversing in French or English.  I’m a year round city cyclist and love my home town Toronto!
