I think I’ve been type cast, but considering the commercial… I’m okay with that!

 

Pandemic pivots seem to be the thing to do over the past couple years, so somehow, someway I now find myself producing, writing and anchoring a half-hour daily newscast for Your TV.

Find me LIVE at 5 each night for Halton News on Your TV Cogeco… I’ll work on growing my Ron Burgundy moustache!

I’m a graduate of Ryerson University (can I still call it that?).

I got the chance to splash around in the dirty RyeHigh fountain for a day and am now the spokesperson for Ryerson’s Chang School of Continuing Education. Check out the fun spot below.

Like many people Sunday is my favourite day of the week… except I have a much different reason than most.  People think I’m crazy when I tell them my favourite thing to do is work, but it’s true and every Sunday I get up early and make my way into the studio to quiz listeners as they sip their morning coffee!

Wake up with me as I take to the AM airwaves on Newstalk1010 (and as of 2021, all across Ontario on the iHeartRadio Talk Network) the host of Sunday Morning Trivia.  A three hour show in which I ask questions to callers, they give me answers and if they’re right they win prizes… so yes, it’s essentially bribing people to listen but I’m okay with that.

Got the chance to dress in some very Canadian attire with a prime example of “lockdown” hair to spread the word about donating plasma!

This was a presentation used at CES 2021 for the Lorex Home Centre… and here I thought I was going to be a part of a Dr. Suess production.

This is for Farm Bureau insurance… if I’m supposed to be a farmer in this commercial, I’m clearly channeling Billy Crystal and Bruno Kirby. 

 

Well I can officially now say the line “I’m not a doctor, but I play one on TV” as I’m making virtual house calls on this new series of commercials for Plushcare.

If you know me at all, you know that I love silly suits.  I have a closet full of selections from Shinesty and Opposuits… well, three years ago my girlfriend and I started a tradition of buying matching holiday outfits to do a silly photo shoot.  This year we entered the photos into a contest and we won! 

And yes, I’m fully aware we’re essentially the “before” photo in this spot and they’re gently poking fun at us but I ask you: What couple would you rather be?  The one giving jewelry, or the one clearly having THE BEST TIME together, loving life, in ridiculous suits.

Remember, the couple that plays together stays together!

Plus we go paid for this and now we have more money for more fun outfits!

Got the chance to drive around in a Subaru Crosstrek this past fall, and there just happened to be a camera crew following me around

Here’s a fun online commercial myself and my “Swiss Chalady” appear in.
