Problem-solver, world traveler, and passionate glass ceiling breaker.
I am passionate about the intersection between public sector issues, business and globalization. After completion of my Masters degree, I plan to work in a dynamic workplace helping to address strategic issues faced by companies across the world.
My upbringing swept me between cities, countries and cultures awakening in me a passion for travel and an interest in all things international. To this day, I have lived in 15 cities in 8 countries, and have taken university courses in five. This collage of experiences has helped me to develop into the global-minded yet independent, flexible and ever-curious individual I am today.
Identified and contacted leaders in fields of Canadian aboriginal and indigenous affairs, Canada at 150, and STEM fields to establish partnerships for funding which lead to the creation of three new academic exchange and research programs.
