I was born in Kitchener, Ontario on January 31st 1980. I moved to Breslau, a small town just outside Kitchener in 1980 with my Mom and brother. I attended Breslau Senior Public School from kindergarden to grade 8. As a very athletic child, I took part in every sports team available. Everything from track and field to volleyball and wrestling. Outside of school I played organized hockey and softball. I attended Grand River Collegiate in Kitchener where I was the quarterback of our junior football team. Unfortunately I dislocated my right shoulder when I was 17 and could no longer continue in sports. During my high school years I became very interested in multi media and drama. I worked on a number of movie sets in my late teens. I loved every minute of it!
