My Why
My Belief: People who have a voice and a platform have an obligation to leverage it for the benefit of others.
I have volunteered on the front line and have seen the effects of mental health on the most vulnerable.
I came to working with folks who use drugs as have been lucky enough to be sober since 2011. Out of this advocacy, I was part of a group that created $200MM mental health funding. Later I supported the creation of legislation enshrining First Responder Training and Overdose Prevention. This year, I co-authored a free book helping leaders with the Psychological Effects of COVID.
I have worked in First Nation communities, have seen the effects of multi-generational trauma, have helped to build a Foodbank, Community Centres, Economic and Employment Opportunities for Indigenous Peoples.
I am the father of two amazing children of mixed European – Iraqi descent.
