Born and bred in Richmond Hill, Ontario, TeeKay attended Roselawn Elementary School where he met Mr. Peachman, his grade six teacher. After noticing much promise in TeeKay's reading and writing skills, Mr. Peachman encouraged the wee writer to develop his gift.

Although he flunked numerous classes in high school, TeeKay always held a 100% average in his English classes, prompting him to consider a career in writing.

Upon graduation, TeeKay took time off from academics to experience life in the trenches, so he became a dishwasher. Once he earned enough cash, TeeKay eventually enrolled himself in York University's Professional Writing and Communications program.

After completion of his university degree, TeeKay left Canada for the sunny beaches of the Gold Coast, Australia.

Wandering and working for a year down under, TeeKay's spiritual journey had reached its conclusion, he found the happiness he set out to discover. Thus, he returned to his homeland, satisfied with his journey and prepared for his next adventure: gaining employment.

**UPDATE** - On March 1st, 2012, TeeKay was hired as a Research Expert at Trend Hunter.

The End.

What is unique that's not in your bio?
I do my best writing in the late night hours. I have been known to wake up from a deep sleep at 3am and write until the sun rises. I have also been known to stumble in the door at 3am, drunker than an Irish sailor, and write until the sun rises.
What's your favorite accomplishment?
Living in another country. Adventure is more exciting in a different area code.
How do you define cool?
Impossible to define something that is constantly changing.
What is your secret to uncovering trends?
Research!
How do you reset to be creative?
(In no particular order) Sleep. Eat. Shower. Drink. Cigarette. Drink again.
What inspires or excites you?
Watching a Quentin Tarantino film or reading something by Hunter S. Thompson. These two icons have produced work which has influenced my life in ways that have come to define who I am. I always turn to Tarantino and Thompson whenever I seek inspiration or excitement.
Predict something awesome for 2020?
Mickey Rourke will still be missing his face. Toronto Maple Leafs win 8 Stanley Cups in a row. Dane Cook finally tells a funny joke.
