About Me

I am the founder and principal investigator of The Investigators, an Ontario-licensed private investigation agency. I am also a Commissioner for Taking Affidavits in Ontario under a limited appointment.My professional background spans more than three decades in military aviation, intelligence, leadership and commercial aviation. I served for over 20 years as an Air Force fighter pilot, Fighter Weapons Instructor, Squadron Intelligence Officer and Joint Director of Signals Intelligence at Air Headquarters. Following my military service, I continued my aviation career internationally and currently serve as an airline captain in Canada.That experience shaped the principles behind The Investigators: disciplined analysis, careful risk assessment, discretion and decisions grounded in verified information. I specialize in online investigations, open-source intelligence (OSINT), skip tracing, background and due-diligence research, landlord and tenant matters, and litigation support. When a case requires physical investigation, appropriate fieldwork can be coordinated through licensed investigators.Every assignment begins with a review of its lawful purpose, scope and expected deliverables. Significant findings are reported factually, with source references and appropriate limitations. The Investigators does not engage in unauthorized access, unlawful surveillance or practices that compromise privacy rights or professional standards.Clients receive personal attention, confidential handling of their information and clear communication throughout the investigation. The objective is straightforward: to provide reliable investigative intelligence that helps clients make informed decisions.
