What is one thing you want students to know about you? 

The reason I chose to major in math at university was a comic book that I read when I was sixteen. My math teacher loaned me the graphic novel ‘Logicomix’, which was about a mathematician exploring all these crazy philosophical concepts about math and logic. It completely changed my opinion on what math was, and I’ve been hooked ever since.

What's your educational background?

I graduated high school from Neuchâtel Junior College, then earned a BSc in Mathematics and Computer Science from the University of Toronto.

Math!

What is something you would tell your younger self in high school?

Don't be afraid to ask for help. Everyone needs help sometimes, and when you allow other people to support you, you can achieve so much more than if you tried to do it alone.
