Dave Cairns, SVP Office Leasing for CBRE Canada, leasing office space to some of the largest companies with a presence in Toronto, squeezed eight years of traditional office time between a very unconventional post-college career in poker, and more recently, embarking on a 'digital home-ad' life while taking a leadership position on commercial real estate transformation, and becoming a prolific publisher on LinkedIn. I am so excited to share this episode with you.

East of the Eastern time zone, in the Gulf of St Lawrence, lies Prince Edward Island (PIE), just off New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, in the Atlantic time zone. This where Dave Cairns and family relocated. As he explains, "my wife and I moved to an unconventional place because of a pandemic set of learnings," a place they were considering a vacation home, they would now move full time to raise a family and embrace the life of digital home-ads.

Dave inhabited a digital world long before covid, online poker. And it was in this world, that he developed his very unique perspective on the strengths of community, engagement, relationships, and transactions that do happen digitally, the positive impact growth in digital worlds has on corresponding physical worlds, and finally, the difficulty many non-digital natives are having during this time of transition.
