I have been working in the educational technology field for over three decades in many areas, including K-12 and tertiary education, health care, promotion and broadcasting.

I was born and raised in Northern Ontario, and presently live with my wife and daughter in Russell Ontario, a rural part of Ottawa. I have been working as a full-time Education Consultant with the Canadian Institute of Health Information since 2002. One of my career highlights was working overseas for 5 years, first as a Communication Technology Instructor in Dubai, and then as a Supervisor in an academic instructional media and technology centre in Abu Dhabi.

I was an early adopter of computer-based multimedia technologies in the mid-eighties, and it was a natural move for me from traditional media to new media. During the last ten years, my focus has been on the learning sciences and advanced methodologies.
