BACK TO FULL TEAM
Where did you grow up?
Wakaw, SK. North East of Saskatoon, about half way to Melfort.
What was your first job in the AG industry?
Elevator Manager Trainee in Red Deer, AB
What is your most memorable experience working for FarmLink?
Seeing farmers succeed and prosper and knowing that to some degree I have helped them succeed and prosper.
What was your most memorable grain marketing experience?
As a general statement I have many memorable experiences interacting with all the farmers and industry people that I have met over the years. But the single most memorable event was the rise and crash of the market in March of 2008. The fall of the market was absolutely frightening to me, and I didn’t even have a personal stake in the market.
If I wasn’t working with FarmLink I would be a ______.
Hail adjuster in the summer and a snow cat operator in the winter. That’s because I think that hail adjusters will soon be adjusting fields with drones and I think it would be a blast operating them. In the winter I’d love to be a ski bum so working at a ski hill would fit right in.
What do you do for fun?
Downhill skiing, hockey (in a very speedy, to some, 50+ league), bicycling.
What is something most people don’t know about you?
That I kissed Nancy Greene (or rather that she kissed me). Being a downhill skier that was a big deal for me.
