Dave’s kind demeanour, attention to detail, commitment to honesty, and client-centred approach are the backbone of how he does business.
Before becoming a REALTOR®, Dave worked in a wide variety of industries, including farming, fishing, forestry, tourism, retail, and call centres. Those diverse experiences helped shape his practical, down-to-earth approach to working with people from all walks of life. Outside of real estate, however, the roles he values most are being a husband and a dad to four children.
Dave also previously worked as a Certified Energy Advisor for Natural Resources Canada with Trinity Inspection Services. In that role, he visited thousands of homes throughout northern Nova Scotia, helping homeowners better understand their properties and identify ways to improve energy efficiency. That experience continues to benefit his real estate clients today and complements his Canadian Certified Green Representative (CCGR) designation.
Dave is also a Canadian Certified Seniors Representative (CCSR) and was among the first 200 REALTORS® in Canada to earn the designation. This specialized training helps him better understand the unique considerations that can come with later-in-life real estate decisions, including downsizing or “right-sizing,” transitioning to a different style of home, and helping families navigate those conversations with care and respect.
An award-winning, full-time REALTOR®, Dave has also been actively involved with the Nova Scotia Association of REALTORS®. He served for four years as Northern Regional Director and currently serves as Alternate Northern Regional Director. His combination of industry involvement, community experience, specialized training, and years spent working inside homes throughout the region allows him to bring a well-rounded perspective to every transaction.
Whether you are buying, selling, downsizing, right-sizing, or simply looking for advice about the local real estate market, Dave is committed to providing honest guidance, personal service, and attention to the details that matter.
Dave is proud to be part of the busy team at Blinkhorn Real Estate Ltd.

Hi, I’m Christa. My passion for organization and growth is the engine that keeps our brokerage running smoothly. I thrive on creating efficient systems and handling the fine details, which empowers our agents to dedicate their full attention to what matters most: you.
This commitment to excellence is deeply influenced by my Lebanese roots, where the values of hard work, resilience, and community are central. It’s why I feel so at home at Blinkhorn, a team that truly embodies that same family-first, supportive spirit. When I'm not in the office, you can usually find me with a camera in hand, capturing photos of my pups or the stunning sunrises and sunsets along our Northern Nova Scotia shores.
Whether you're looking for a specialist in commercial properties, a guide for your first home purchase, or an expert in the Stellarton market, our team has you covered. Reach out today, and we'll connect you with the perfect professional to help you achieve your goals.
