He has seen Calgary grow from a city of 330,000 when he arrived, to the city of 1.6 million that it is today.

With experience, a lawyer is always learning and developing skills. One of the skills that Ken values most highly is his ability to assist and mentor colleagues to help them grow and achieve their full potential. This has made Ken an accomplished active listener and valued mentor who is not afraid to be decisive, while also understanding the need to be firm, fair and balanced in making or assisting others in reaching decisions. As for sports, Ken devotes his spectator loyalty to the Calgary Flames and the Seattle Seahawks. He’s also prepared to wager wrongly on any of the golf majors, being a determined golfer whose game is very much a work in progress.

Ken stays active with hiking, travel, and three grandchildren to chase after.
