I love to explore and I'm incredibly fortunate to work for a non-profit organization that allows me to travel extensively. From September to April, I tour Canada to connect with students, parents, educators, industry leaders, and alumni to promote SHAD, a life-changing, intense, and unique four-week summer enrichment program that brings together academically strong and well-rounded high school students. In July, I'm a faculty member at SHAD's University of British Columbia (UBC) campus in Vancouver. In May & June, I camp between Ontario and my job in Vancouver and I make the return trip in August. These journeys give me the opportunity to explore many natural and beautiful areas of Canada and the United States.
