("It is a joy and honour to come to work every day. I love being part of a team of like-minded individuals who have a passion for news and information. I love being able to provide interesting and relevant news to our listeners - stuff they need to know to manoeuvre through the morning, as well as the news-of-the-day, some of which will have its place in history.")

In addition to having lived here since 1981, his mother was born at St. Mary's Hospital in 1931, his grandfather worked in the office at Seagram in the 1930s and his great-aunt Rhoda lived for many years in the Bridgeport area.
