In his work, he covered final international tour as South African President, interviewed Nobel Peace Prize Winner Desmond Tutu, as well as rebel leaders, sports stars, Grammy award winning artists and indicted war criminals. The CBC closed the Africa bureau in April 2012 after the federal government chopped $115 million from its Parliamentary grant.

His reports from the former Soviet Union aired on National Public Radio, CBC News, ABC Radio News and US Public Television.

His first job in journalism was for the MacNeil–Lehrer Newshour on PBS. He was part of the team that launched the NewsHour's award-winning website and he oversaw the NewsHour's digital foreign coverage. He graduated from Trent University, the journalism program at the University of King's College and Lisgar Collegiate Institute. (en)
