Commercial real estate is never the same; it is constantly changing and plays a crucial part in the operation of every company — especially how it affects the ability to retain and attract talent. In my 36 years in this business, I have developed a love for crafting creative solutions that solve my clients’ needs, including leasing, sales, subleasing, and real estate consulting for the technology industries.

In 1994 I co-founded The High Technology Facilities Group, Vancouver’s only full-service tenant representation team to focus exclusively on serving BC’s technology sector. Over the last 31 years, the tech industry has exploded, and working alongside the companies making Vancouver the leading North American tech city it is today has been an incredible journey. Clients of the firm are passionate about business and pull out all the stops when growing teams and operations. Finding commercial space for tech companies comes with unique challenges, and I get a real charge from sourcing and negotiating the perfect solutions that help my clients take their companies to the next level.

Outside of work, travel is a primary passion—providing a break from the 24/7 “deal noodling” that comes with life in the city. Whether hitting the slopes in Whistler, taking in art and architecture, racing family members up the Grouse Grind, or road-riding, having that “out of market” downtime helps recharge the mind and spark creative thinking for projects on the go.
