The Author of: It’s Never The Things You Think

I am an environmental facilitator. That means I help organizations to collaborate/ communicate/plan/problem solve and educate their partners and clients about issues related to environmental activities. Over the years, my colleagues and I have successfully run the gamut of projects - from helping a small fishing club in southern Ontario update some of their programming, to working with UNESCO in Venice, Italy to develop an ocean literacy professional development training program for Europe.

I loved every minute of it.

I am now focusing my business on writing, both in and out of the environmental field. The truth is, throughout my environmental career, I actually spent a great deal of time writing. My blogs, which could have been tools for sharing business ideas and approaches, were actually opportunities to share stories about fishing, cycling, music and a host of other experiences. It is those blogs that have given me the fodder for this next chapter in my life. 

And here I am, introducing my first book, It’s Never the Things You Think.  I hope to carry you along the path that I took to make it a reality, and indeed, share with you some of my adventures. I believe there is a good chance that you will find a piece of your own life in at least one of the stories.

Enjoy!!!
