"My 'expertise' is a willingness to learn and engage in solving real-world challenges."
What brought you to UPEI? Why did you choose to teach here?
I grew up in Guelph, Ontario and before learning about the UPEI Faculty of Sustainable Design Engineering (FSDE), I was uncertain whether I would want to work in academia. My interests are diverse, so I struggled to see a fit in many of the traditional engineering schools that use departments to divide engineering teaching and research into specific disciplines.
