General Interests

Have a keen eye for Interior Decor and design and have been hired to decorate several rooms for family and friends. I also have an interest in gardening and landscaping and have been hired by several people in my own neighborhood to decorate the outside of their homes for Christmas. I have also had my home pictured in the gardening section of the Hamilton Spectator as well as my neighborhood website.

I love all animals, especially dogs and cats and open a dog treat station on the front walkway of my home every summer.

I am interested in Art, Art Galleries and all Museums and enjoy spending my down time reading or watching documentaries.
