I began skating in 1984 after reading a feature article on skateboarding in bmx plus magazine. After moving to Vancouver in 1989 and skating the Richmond Skateranch almost everyday I was asked by Kevin Harris to work at the park and within 6 months was asked to fully run and manage the park. After a few years of being a sponsored amateur for various companies and managing the park it came time to see the parks sad closure in 1992. After a year of working out side the skateboard industry but continuing my skateboarding I was asked by Kevin Harris to join the staff at Ultimate Skateboard Distributors (third largest skateboard distribution company in the world). After a year or two of warehouse work I was gradually promoted and currently hold the position of General Manager. Along with the huge responsibly of my position at Ultimate I have managed to judge almost every pro skateboard contest in North America including the X-Games under the direction of World Cup Skateboarding and I am currently starting my 4th year doing so. After 14 years of involvement in the skateboard industry I still find plenty of time to skate with my friends and enjoy waking up every morning knowing I am part of not a job but a lifestyle in which I love and would not trade for anything. I can be contacted at the following numbers.
