I have a passion for environmental sustainability and business.
The amount of power and influence organizations hold in society is enormous and I want to help organizations harness this power towards creating positive change, particularly in environmental stewardship.
My short-term goal is to complete the CPA designation. This will enable me to gain experience with various industries and organizations, and develop a deep understanding the business context and models.
I also believe it is important to connect with your community in order to create a support network, and a healthy and happy place to live. I've volunteered with the Rotaract Club of Burnaby for over 5 years serving various leadership roles. Through my experiences with Rotaract, I have volunteered in Uganda, Africa; met new friends in Copenhagen, Denmark; and spearheaded projects including fundraising for polio and creating environmental awareness with youth.
My strengths include:
- Project coordination
- Organization
- Team management
- Relationship building
Beyond work, I love to gain new experiences and travel. Over the past 3 years I've been fortune to travel to various countries and continents around the world. I'm amazed and inspired by the different cultures, food, architecture and landscape.
I strive to continuously learn academically, professionally and personally and take on new challenges.
