About Justin

Justin comes from a background in marketing, working primarily in the automotive sector prior to transitioning into journalism and broadcasting. Justin graduated from Fanshawe College's Journalism-Broadcast program in 2024, earning awards in newscasting, news writing, as well as being named the 'Bob Collins Journalist of the Year' during his time with the college.

He also serves as the In-Game Broadcast Host for the London Majors in the Intercounty Baseball League. Justin has family all over the province, including in London, Mount Forest, Waubaushene, and Thunder Bay, meaning it can be quite busy for him during the holidays.
