About me

Adam is a dedicated father and husband, originally from Montréal, who has called Vancouver home since 2006. After earning a degree in Commerce from Concordia University, he built a career in the organic and natural foods sector, grounded in principles of healthy living, sustainability, and fair-trade practices. He has also served on the board of the Vancouver Greens, several strata councils, and the Velopalooza Bike Festival, bringing governance experience and community leadership to his work. A long-time member of the Strathcona Community Garden, he grew food for over 15 years and advocates for expanding access to community gardening across the city.

Adam’s vision for Vancouver centres on environmental stewardship, community well-being, and equitable access to public spaces. A strong advocate for bike and pedestrian safety, he organizes community cycling events and champions investments in active and public transportation as climate and gridlock solutions. He believes safe, accessible mobility is essential to ensure residents of all ages and abilities can enjoy Vancouver’s parks.

With hands-on experience building and renovating homes, Adam brings a practical, solutions-focused perspective to addressing aging and dilapidated community centres. He is committed to renewing and upgrading these vital public spaces. He believes thoughtful planning and investment can transform community centres into vibrant, inclusive hubs that strengthen neighbourhood connections.

Adam is also committed to protecting and expanding Vancouver’s tree canopy, recognizing its role in climate resilience, urban cooling, and community health. He supports proactive tree planting, preservation, and maintenance to ensure greener neighbourhoods. He also believes in providing 24-hour access to clean, safe public toilets as essential infrastructure that supports dignity, public health, and inclusion. His perspective is further informed by his wife’s work as a wildlife biologist, public forest school teacher, and environmental consultant.

As a long-time community gardener (15-years at Strathcona Community Garden) and food industry professional Adam understands food security and the positive health impacts of gardening, beyond the low-cost healthy food harvested by gardeners.

He also supports expanding access to cultural and recreational opportunities, volunteering with the CULTCH and York Theatre and hosting visiting artists during the Fringe Festival.

An active outdoor enthusiast, Adam enjoys hiking, cross-country skiing, and cycling with his family, strengthening his commitment to protecting Vancouver’s parks.

Adam is running for Park Board to help build a healthier, greener, and safer Vancouver that remains welcoming, inclusive, and accessible to all.

What I Stand For

Safer and Smarter Streets Advocacy

Promoting safer and more accessible streets in Vancouver for everyone.

I have been a long-time advocate for safer streets for pedestrians and cyclists. Through community organizing, cycling initiatives, and transportation advocacy, I have worked to raise awareness around road safety and accessibility. My work centres on creating a city where everyone can move safely and sustainably.

Community Well-Being and Public Safety

Supporting compassionate public safety and stronger community systems.

Adam believes community well-being starts with neighbourhood-based approaches to public safety. His advocacy includes supporting stronger civilian oversight, improved access to mental health services, and greater investment in public spaces such as libraries, community centres, parks, and accessible washrooms.

Third Spaces

Helping develop a city that is livable, community-focused, and sustainable.

With fewer residents having access to private outdoor space parks, community centers, libraries, playgrounds, pools and rinks become more important. As the city grows park lands and tree canopy needs to grow too. Residents need non-commercial places outside the home where activities are free or low cost. Our community centers need to be maintained, renovated and in some cases redeveloped in to large spaces.

My Values

Accessibility

A city that works for everyone, regardless of income, mobility, or neighbourhood.

Sustainability

Supporting climate-aligned transportation, housing, and land use.

Community Well-Being

Strong public spaces, arts and culture, and inclusive neighbourhoods.
