I have spent over 30 years as a broadcast journalist in both radio and television. In radio, I have worked at CBC Radio (Alberta), CFRB Radio (Toronto), CHQR Radio (Calgary), CKLC Radio (Kingston) and CKUA Radio. In television, I spent many years with CBC Alberta News, CBC Newsworld, CTV NewsNet and Global Television (Calgary), picking up three national awards along the way. Tours of duty as a foreign correspondent took me to the UK and Ireland, and the Middle and Far East, and I have reported from four war zones, including Israel and the Occupied Territory, Kuwait and Iraq, and Northern Ireland. I teach the Television News Presentation course at the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology in Calgary.

I am thrilled to be working with old friends at CKUA News (for which I worked as a reporter in my early days in Medicine Hat), and with new friends on CKUA's Bookmark.
