When I came to McGill, I was in a bad place as a close relative had just passed away. Initially, I immersed myself in academics only, but then through the encouragement of others, became engaged in sports and social life as a university student. In my fourth year, I became the Engineering Undergraduate Society president and met my wife to be – a new path had been set. A path where taking risks and starting new things was “normal.” I was made by McGill.
