ABOUT IAN

Ian Sterling is a spiritual person who relates closest with the Catholic Religion.  He is a very positive individual who believes that something good comes out of every bad situation, even death! 

Ian’s philosophy on life: 

“We are all dying from the day that we are born.  Only one thing is for sure;  That our lives will come to an end.  It is what you DO with the time that you are given that matters.  Luck, and help from others can really be an influence, but it’s what you DO for the most part that affects who you are, and in what direction you are going.” 

Ian Sterling is a proud Londoner (London, Ontario) and Canadian.  He attributes his character and the way he approaches everything, to his diverse & loving family.
