Why did you choose John Molson School of Business? I had the opportunity to work with Professor Bianca Grohmann as my thesis supervisor after having previously worked with her in my honours undergraduate thesis in Concordia's Psychology department. I equally wanted to take Professor Gad Saad’s Evolutionary Psychology class at the MSc level. I am a big fan of Gad Saad as a public intellectual.
Favourite place in Montreal? Elena
Future aspirations: Grow Canada’s first roofing franchise!
What do you wish you knew before starting the program? Before starting the program, I wish I knew the importance of building relationships with my classmates. Grad school is so much better with a group of like-minded people to work together with!
