Admitted in New York

I have worked all over the world but I am most firmly a social and economic Japan optimist. Now in Tokyo I’m the proud Chair of External Relations at the Canadian Chamber of Commerce in Japan, and a Canada-trained, New York-licensed attorney. I'm also a native of Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.
