He then pursued a job with the Canadian Armed Forces, reaching the rank of Sergeant NCO Officer, this job took him to places such as Shilo, Manitoba, Wainwright, Alberta, Coral Harbour, Nunavut, and Lahr, Germany. After his military career, he took a job on a job as a 911 operator, eventually moving into a manager position. After leaving this job, he was hired on at Tbaytel, where he would work in the repair department, then as a network engineer until retirement.
After his retirement, he moved to Mexico, where he would spend his time living between Chuburna and Chelem. He enjoyed his time spent fishing and on the beaches with his dog of ten years, Max. Throughout his life, he was involved in many different sports and leagues.
