Dave lives in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada he was born in Cork City Ireland and immigrated to Canada in 1974 with his family. He has three daughters  and four Grandchildren.

With a lack of  formal education he embarked on this project with a truckload of determination because he didn't want anyone else to feel hopeless, helpless alone or scared as he did after being diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Bipolar is not the end of the world just a new set of blueprints to live your life.

Dave's passion has always been music. All genres and artists interest his ear while rock is his preference he also likes traditional Irish music or anything with a Celtic feel. He plays keyboards and accordion and enjoys writing his own songs.

 Believing he is “old school” with many traditional ideas. Dave likes to think of himself as a person who genuinely cares  about people. He lives by the motto People do Matter. It is far easier to turn your back on a situation than to roll up your sleeves and help.

He believes in God, Christmas, and the freedom to be open minded. All to often in life we complain. He has chosen to make a difference and accept the hand that God has dealt him rather than wallow in self-pity. Dave is an ordinary man full of compassion who knows he can make a difference to the way people view bipolar disorder. He looks forward to the future and your much appreciated support.
