THERE IS SO MUCH CFL NEWS GOING ON I CANT KEEP UP
I'm grateful to be a finalist for @RTDNA_Canada's Emerging Journalist Award. It's an honour to know my reporting on policing for @CBCHamilton set me apart from the 50 applicants. The winner will be named on Oct. 20 — and win or lose, I'll keep digging. #cdnmedia #rtdna
I was really proud of this Columbus series... and I'm always pumped when someone as cool as @RhiannonGiddens sends some love to the podcast.
Do yourself a favor this Indigenous Peoples Day (nee Columbus Day) & check out this 3-part series from @ourfakehistory that lays out the history of Columbus, and why we have come to regard him so favorably. The podcast is well researched and well done. ourfakehistory.com/index.php/seas…
This October I'm letting myself get seasonal. Buckle up for a trilogy on the Salem Witch Trials. Part One is out now and Ozzy Osbourne, Billy Crystal, and something called a "witches teat" all make an appearance. podcastone.com/episode/Episod…
Dude: "What are your Sunday vibes?" Me: "Watching a CFL game" Dude: "The CFL? That's tragic 😭" Me: *blocks* If I had a dollar for every one of these types of convos, I'd be SO rich🙄
Many already know this, but for the last few months I've been with CBC Toronto, reporting on local issues for web and radio. I'm happy to say I've also ventured into TV News as well and will be working with the CBC Toronto Enterprise team for the next while.

Never let it be said that I have shame. Especially when I get journalists to go to a karaoke bar in an old Legion hall. I, indeed, am stronger than yesterday.

Hey everyone, would anyone be interested if I wrote a short book on my experiences in going through the treatment industry and working in substance use & addiction? The good, the bad, the heartbreaking, and the lessons learned.
Slowly but surely, the weight is coming down. I’ve been feeling a lot better lately, and the proof is in the jerseys! In 2019 I was rocking a 3XL jersey, last season it was a 2XL, and this upcoming season it’ll be an XL 😀
