About Gary

It has been my distinct pleasure to meet so many of you at the doors since I began my campaign in June. I have enjoyed all of the conversations and, above all, I've heard your concerns.

We share a collective passion for our ward and the city itself, however, it's clear we have challenges your elected officials need to focus on. This includes increased investments in infrastructure to support the unprecedented growth we are facing, the need to preserve the unique charm of our neighbourhoods, community focused development projects, small business support and regular communication with residents.

I have been fortunate to raise my family, live and work in Ward 2 for over 25 years. My previous leadership roles with the Ajax Pickering Board of Trade, Rotary Club of Pickering, Durham West Arts Centre Foundation and many other community organizations have allowed me to develop a wide array of skills that will give you, the residents of Ward 2, the representation you deserve on Council.

This is an important time for Pickering and Durham Region - our community requires devoted advocacy in order to achieve the results we desire. I have proven my ability to advocate for those I've served in both my professional and volunteer roles. It would be my honour and privilege to serve you as the next Regional  Councillor for Ward 2.
