About Me
JP has long harbored feelings of deep admiration and jealousy toward radio storytellers. In early 2010 he decided to do something about that, and started a podcast called I Like You with a friend. The show tells often-silly, sometimes-sweet, and occasionally-traumatic tales of modern love, like, dating, and relationships. JP’s radio skills took a huge leap forward in Fall 2011 when he participated in the first ever Transom Story Workshop. There, he fell even harder for the joy of crafting stories, and the privilege of listening. Today he is interning with State of the Re:Union. JP holds a degree in Urban Studies from York University. He’s originally from Ottawa, Canada – home to the world’s longest skating rink, and his parents.
