I chose to attend Queen's because I knew its incredible academic reputation, and its student involvement opportunities. I could not be happier with my decision.

I am most interested in optimizing systems to reduce waste or increase output. The motive behind this is somewhere between humanitarian and environmental as I want to allow people to get more out of what they have to increase the quality of living and reduce negative environmental impacts of businesses or industry.

Receiving my student award has made an immense difference to my university experience. Having the opportunity to be part of such a wonderful community and having the ability to dive right into it without my financial situation holding me back has been one of the best experiences of my life, and I will make the most out of every opportunity it gives me to do right by it. Thank you.
