I grew up in the small community of Denman Island and later moved to Mill Bay, where I attended Brentwood College for my final years of high school. After graduating, I pursued a degree in Economics at the University of Victoria, where I was first introduced to Scholars Edge.

I had always been interested in business, but like many students, I didn’t know where to start. Over the next four summers, with the support of my District Manager and Scholars Edge, I learned how to scale my painting business in Victoria. In 2022, I was given the opportunity to become a District Manager—a chance I eagerly embraced to share my knowledge and experience with other students, just as I had been mentored in prior years.

Since then, I have coached over 50 student operators, helping them develop the skills needed to become successful entrepreneurs. Time and time again, I have seen how this program empowers students to reach their full potential and open doors to a variety of career paths. My goal is to identify the most ambitious individuals and equip them with the tools to surpass their peers and achieve success.
