ABOUT ME
We have been married since 2008 and live in Winnipeg. Mike is a PhD student in English at the University of Manitoba and Steph is a Mentorship Facilitator working with refugees in Winnipeg. We spent two years in Newfoundland doing Masters degrees. We also lived in the Dominican Republic for the winter of 2010-11. We are really active with running and cycling and enjoy making new friends.
