Tell us something most people don't know about you: I met Princess Diana and Prince Charles when they were in Toronto in the 90's. I shook their hand and we exchanged a few words. It was special back then but it has even more meaning now since the death of Princess Diana.

Most daring memory: When I went Tandem Paragliding off the hills of Austria. It was the most exhilarating feeling just running off and letting the parachute pick up and you slowly gliding all the way down. It was an amazing bird's eye view of the Austrian countryside.
