Originally from Toronto in eastern Canada, I have resided in Calgary since 2006. My interests include electronics technology, my pets, homelessness and poverty, the natural world, politics and world affairs among others. I like to read with science fiction and history being topics of current interest. My employment generally is within the electrical engineering field but, I have done other things as well. I am currently pursuing a degree in Technical Management from the Northern Institute of Technology (NAIT) based in Edmonton, Alberta. I am studying via online, distance learning.
