Education
My two years in the Peter B. Gustavson School of Business have been some of the most rewarding of my life. The core courses in third year were effective in preparing me for the final year of my degree and my future career but more importantly they informed me on what areas of business I was most interested in and what I wanted to study in my elective term. I have really enjoyed my final semester at the University of Victoria, specializing in Entrepreneurship, and feel inspired and ready to jump into the business world. Here are some highlights.
