About

As a proud father of three fantastic adults I understand the importance of family, trust, and commitment. When I’m not guiding clients through the real estate process, you’ll find me out on the water touring the Gulf Islands, cycling, kayaking or playing music with my family. I also have a background in education, holding a Bachelor’s Degree in Education and having studied at the University of Winnipeg, Laval University in Quebec City, and UBC in Vancouver.

I’ve been a REALTOR® in Victoria, BC since 1998 and have witnessed firsthand the full spectrum of real estate market cycles—from boom to bust, and everything in between. This experience gives me a distinct edge when working with both buyers and sellers, as I understand the intricacies of each phase of the market. My clients will tell you that I am confident, knowledgeable, and prepared—yet, above all, available. Relationships are at the core of my business, and I believe a strong rapport with colleagues is essential to securing the best results for my clients.

One of the cornerstones of my practice is my commitment to fiduciary responsibility. I take great pride in honouring my duty to clients who entrust me with their homes. I understand that in today’s rapidly evolving market, with ever-changing regulations, it’s crucial to have a REALTOR® who not only has a clear, strategic marketing plan but also the experience and integrity to navigate complex negotiations. My clients know they can rely on me to always act in their best interests—providing sound advice, expert negotiations, and transparency throughout every step of the process.

Since 2018, I’ve partnered with Dirk Van derWal to publish the VictoriaQReport.com, a comprehensive quarterly real estate report. It's the real estate report realtors read. One of our slogans is What Actually Happened, it's not a question. This publication is the go-to resource for interpreting market trends and data, and is widely regarded by local realtors as an essential tool for understanding the Victoria market. I encourage you to sign up for free and stay informed!

Whether you’re looking to buy, sell, or simply explore your options in this dynamic market, I’d love to work with you and make sure you feel confident every step of the way.

Currently I'm the Chair Elect of the Victoria Real Estate Board and have been a Director since 2021. Serving the membership has given me a great opportunity to better my skills as a real estate marketing professional and to especially have a deeper understanding of the changing regulatory landscape of organized real estate.
