What are you doing now and how does your engineering education from Waterloo help with your life today?
I am currently working as a product manager at IBM, based out of Toronto. Waterloo and the Department of Systems Design Engineering offered a variety of cross-discipline engineering courses with a focus on not just principles, but also application, so students would be prepared for what they got to experience during co-ops and after graduation, which was extremely helpful for me.
Why did you decide to be a part of REAC?
I wanted to be a part of REAC to help drive participation of the recent engineering alumni community in events, so alumni have an opportunity to meet others who they might not have had met during their time at Waterloo.
What is a favourite piece of advice or quote that you would be interested in sharing?
"There must be a beginning of any great matter, but the continuing unto the end until it be thoroughly
finished yields the true glory." – Francis Drake
What was your favourite place to eat at in Waterloo?
Ken Sushi
What's a skill, routine or habit that you picked up at Waterloo that you didn’t expect to use in your career?
My google calendar. It started off as an attempt to organize the first year schedule and now everything in my life is a calendar event. Super handy for work.
What are your plans for the near future?
To get better at snowboarding.
Finally, do you have any fun and/or interesting media recommendations? Could be a
book, song, movie, documentary, videogame, etc.
