My Meandering Education
My love for learning started with my family. We were always a very adventurous and inquisitive bunch. My foundational education started with my family.
My young adult days took me to Waterloo to learn about maps, natural systems, design, and data modelling. Making maps was a great beginning to learn about designing systems.
After graduating from the University of Waterloo, I continued my love of visual design through photography by teaching the importance of space and light at Brock University.
