Personal Experience
Stephen joins Chinook with a passion for small business. Since earning a Bachelors of Arts while competing on the varsity basketball team for Ambrose University in Calgary, Stephen has exclusively worked in small businesses. From growing the BC Division of DECO Windshield Repair from 2-10 locations, to helping Victoria based Plurilock Security go public on the Toronto Stock Exchange, he has had a diversity of experiences in the small business ecosystem. He also produces a popular tennis channel on YouTube called The Slice, where he’s attracted millions of viewers and interviewed some of the best tennis players in the world.
Through his time working with the owners of small businesses (and being one himself), Stephen has gained an immense respect and understanding of the work that goes into creating a great business. This appreciation drives him to help the clients of Chinook achieve the best-case-scenario when exiting the business they’ve built, however that looks.
Outside the office, Stephen is our resident multi-sport athlete, hitting the waves surfing, nailing those golf swings, and acing it on the tennis court. When he’s not being a sports star, he’s hanging out with his wife, friends, and family. Stephen’s kind of a prodigy, and we’re super lucky he decided to bring his talents to our team. He’s been a real game-changer for us. Plus, his unfiltered commentary keeps the office in stitches.
