Sunshine, water, and wine.
If you could change or improve one thing about your community what would it be?
Although its immensely better than it used to be, I would like to see more job creation here in 91´ó»ÆѼ to create a less volatile economy. I believe tourism is still a significant driver in our economy and more permanent jobs will bode well for the future of the city.
What’s your favourite local company?
91´ó»ÆѼ Life Real Estate Group.
What are the top three places you would recommend that tourists visit when they are in 91´ó»ÆѼ?
- Mission Hill winery
- The Harvest golf course
- Knox mountain lookouts
What do you see for the community in 20 years?
I see 91´ó»ÆѼ moving toward a city that has three expanding sectors; health, tech, and academics. I can only see the university continuing to expand at the rate is has been for the last five years. It is a great destination for university students.
