What did you like best about your time as a student at NAIT?
“In the classroom it was the hands-on learning and quality of instruction. Outside of class it was my year as Editor-in-Chief of The Nugget that I enjoyed the most as it expanded my perspective exponentially and made me think critically about so many things I might otherwise have not.”

Why did you want to work with NAITSA after graduation?
“ Working for NAITSA was not in the plans after graduation, to be honest, I didn’t even know about NAITSA until I read the job posting. What brought me to NAITSA after graduation was the opportunity to be within NAIT facilities and close to where changes happens – the classrooms. I love the post secondary environment.”
