I chose to study at McGill because it was the most prestigious university in Canada and it was in my home town. I was also attracted by its reputation as a great university to prepare you for the business world.
McGill offered me a chance to explore different areas of business when I didn’t know what I wanted to focus on. It allowed me to determine what type of career I wanted to pursue, and it allowed me to develop the skills I needed.
The University also helped me make the connections that were instrumental in my career and in my life. It was an inspiring professor in a class called Information System Design that led me to connect with a manager at Accenture (then known as Andersen), where I worked for 21 years. It was also at McGill that I met my wife to be, and we are still together after all these years.
