While completing a 20 year career in the financial services sector (specifically in the mutual fund industry), I have created a name for myself in the sports media through a series of varied assignments and affiliations, including a critical role in statistical evaluation for the Toronto Maple Leafs that has evolved into the current NHL Real-Time Scoring. I have been tracking play-by-play of the Toronto Blue Jays Baseball on behalf of STATS INC since 1992 & I have been a member of the Society for International Hockey Research (SIHR), acting as Treasurer and Member of the Board of Directors, since 1996. I was appointed as Treasurer for the Canadian Football Research Society (CFRS) in 2008. I host a fantasy sports talk show on www.thatchannel.com, The Statsman Show. I have been a writer for Fanball for three years, covering the Toronto Maple Leafs, providing a weekly Eastern Conference Report and several feature assignments as well.
