Born 1958 in Vancouver, BC, Canada, currently living in Sidney, BC. I've been involved with amateur astronomy for over 30 years and have found it to be very enriching.  I hope my story will inspire children to wonder about the stars and instil a desire to learn more about the night sky.

A special thanks to Astronomer Jim Kaler for generously sharing his time and his informative "Stars" website. And thanks to Galya Westler and author Linda McIntyre for help with the website.
