Though he honed his skills at school in other parts of the province, it wasn’t long before he came back to Vanderhoof where the air was cleaner, and the sky had more stars in it. Outside of work, Shay loves spending time with his wife and two kids in the great outdoors. He loves camping, hunting and fishing. Shay also enjoys studying the Filipino martial arts and Jeet Kune Do. Shay sits on the board of directors for the Canadian Homebuilders Association of Northern BC. and participates in multiple homebuilding industry events throughout the province.

I have been in construction for 14 years and been a journeyman carpenter for 10. I graduated from CNC Prince George. I enjoy challenging myself with new building practices and technology, with a particular interest in energy efficiency. I take any chance to go to conferences and forums about industry innovations. I love to spend time with my wife and kids. I enjoy motorcycles, physical fitness, hiking and running.
Having graduated Thompson Rivers' University in 2010, I've worked for a variety of companies doing all processes of construction. My position as site manager for Northern Homecraft provides me with lots of new challenges, my favourites being framing and tiling. I feel like I've enhanced my knowledge in the last couple years with new innovations to more efficient housing.
I'm married and have a 1.5-year-old daughter. Some of our favourite family activities include lazy Sunday breakfasts and cartoons. I also enjoy small wood crafting projects.
