Lori Mellor - "This is the most exciting career I never knew existed. It combines so many different skill sets. I came from office furniture sales, then I went into marketing and communications in a high tech company in Toronto." (Read More)

Arturo Brisindi - "I've been playing the drums for about half my life. That was my main instrument when I played with my band, My Dad vs Yours. I discovered vintage synthesizers in the mid-90s when I was around 17." (Read More)

Roberto Campagna - "The site of our office is where my grandparents lived years ago. I spent a lot of time playing here. There's a lot of nostalgia in these walls. I think everything that's happened to date and everything that's planned for the future on Preston is phenomenal. It's a very unique neighbourhood with tons of potential." (Read More)

Joe Lofaro - "I started to become interested in video way before VHS came out. I bought my first TV camera and recorder in July 1971. I still have it here." (Read More)
