Raised in Portage la Prairie, MB I became interested in severe weather when I was a kid, and it gradually became a full-time Passion, I started my Facebook page "Manitoba Storm Chasers" in 2015 as a place for me to share my photos and videos, and it quickly blew up into a page with over 50,000 followers, I then expanded into Youtube, Twitter, and other social media, and also began running Storm Chasing Tours, both locally and abroad Which now run under the name "Vorticity Storm Tours" and can be found at www.vorticitystormtours.com. The Covid-19 Pandemic forced me to leave my full-time job in 2020, And that was when I made the decision to put my heart and soul into my storm chasing and my weather forecasting full time, and turn it from a passion into a career, I am currently starring in a storm chasing TV series called "Under The Meso" on WCGtv out of Western Manitoba, Episode 1 premiered in early July of 2021, It has been a tough season to shoot a storm chasing show, But future episodes are in the works and will be airing soon! I hope you enjoy following along on my Chases here on Highways and Hailstones!
