There is no shortage of problems to solve or causes to serve.

I arrived at McGill with a thirst for understanding and a need to solve problems. I left with the skills to help others learn, measure impact, and work methodically toward a better world.

Every step I have taken since has been thanks to a sound foundation of principles and practices grounded in social science, allowing me to excel.

Some careers are driven by an invisible thread rather than a predictable path, and mine has been led by a calling for learning. My McGill education and overall experience refined my values and competencies so that I could bring both the character and ability to the causes I have served across different jobs, countries, languages, and people.

It is with gratitude that I reflect on what McGill has made me.
