Personal Coaching and mentoring has been a passion of mine for a number of years. It was only after completing my course
in coaching with the Six Advisors Academy (www.sixadvisors.com) that I decided to go into coaching full time.
"Success is a Conscious Choice" and I now realize and understand that process. With that in mind, I am ready to help you
get the most out of life. Working together we can change your thought process so you feel good about your life.
As a Professional Coach, I see myself as a partner, providing you with the tools, support and courage to achieve more with
your life than you have ever thought possible.

I will encourage you to take responsibility for your own
actions, and for where you are in your life. This will allow you to move forward. I will encourage you to live in the present
moment, to feel at ease with yourself and to embrace happiness.

Background:
I was raised on a family farm, and worked as a farmer for thirty years. During this time I was involved with numerous
farming-related and social justice organizations and was given the opportunity to work with and be mentored by leaders
at the national and international level. I have traveled extensively and have lived in and worked in third world countries.
My wife Linda and I have four grown children who are all now working.
In 1994 I was a graduate of the Advanced Agricultural Leadership Program (AALP) and in 1998 a graduate of the
Canadian Agricultural Leadership for Life Program. (CALL)

In November of 1999, I decided to sell my farm to my son Terry and to further my studies. I returned to the University
of New Brunswick (UNB), and in the spring of 2003, graduated with a degree in Interdisciplinary Leadership Philosophy.
That summer I spent the month of June studying and improving my communication skills at Royal Roads University in Victoria
B.C. Canada.
In 2004 I began operating a business called MightyGrandFalls.com, an online marketing and website development company.
This company focuses on promoting a strong and united community by assisting businesses to grow their business. That business
was sold in June of 2006 but continues to grow and remains successful.
I am the past president of the Grand Falls Toastmaster club and have completed my ATM Bronze.
In October of 2006 I completed my course in life coaching at the Six Advisors Academy (
www.sixadvisors.com).
I want to finish with the last few sentences from Og Mandino's Scroll 111.
"For now I know one of the greatest principals of success:
If I persist long enough I will win.
I will persist.
I will win."
