Born in Ontario and having lived in Cape Breton, Halifax, the Kawarthas, and the Highlands of Scotland,
he is now enjoying exploring the South Shore with his partner Amy

He is passionate about community building, tea, Gaelic, square dancing, and the intersection of faith and daily life.

When not in the pulpit, he can be found out visiting in the community, meeting people in coffee shops, or pondering the big questions of life on one of Lunenburg County's many beaches.
