It's interesting to look back at my life and realize that all kinds of past experiences and pure interests really prepared the way for where I ended up going in life.

It can be the real simple things, like my first job as a waterslide attendant. I never would have imagined that the many hours hosing down pool decks & change rooms would prepare me so well for cleaning of our float rooms every night :P

Before opening Float House, I somehow found myself running the national operations for a growing fitness franchise, and primarily handheld the entire opening process of dozens of locations across the country and supported their ongoing operations. This immense exposure to all things related to opening and running a new business has been very helpful along the way in this venture.

Beyond the career stuff, a lifelong love and passion for all things water has no doubt played a huge part in how I have focused my time in life and why Float House exists today. Before I discovered floating, this obsession has primarily expressed itself over the last two decades by chasing winds over water and snow via the sport of kitesurfing.

Whether through kiting, hiking, yoga, gazing sunsets & rises, getting lost in forests, biking, or the exploration of spiritual scriptures and sacraments, I never realized until opening this space and floating so much that I have been pursuing deep moments of isolation, solitude, stillness, meditation, contemplation and perspective shifts for much of my life.

Creating a friendly & safe space everyone to explore floating in sensory deprivation as a tool to support their own personal journeys and exploration is an honour, and if all goes to plan, I intend on hosting floats for the rest of my life.

This dream of mine has only been possible because of the support and help of Misha & Cory, my mum & dad, Mikey, Rebecca, Alex, Crystal, Kostas, Stephany and many others. Thank you so much for being a part of my life and for helping to make this a reality :)
