Born in the windswept prairies of Manitoba, Jean moved with his family when young to the Niagara region.

Like many people I hold an Honours University degree that has nothing to do with the work I am doing, mine happens to be in Math. I also hold a Derivatives Market Specialist designation from the Canadian Securities Institute. Those jobs usualy go to people who are good at towing the line though. People who like to catch others in mid-lie and draw attention are far better off here, and here is where I enjoy being.
Over 20 years of building PC's and playing games on them, I would be more specific but I am pretty vain and not about to let you hone in on my age that closely. I also have some backround in IT budgeting and tech support.
