I’m a John Abbott grad who went on to do my B.Eng in Mechanical Engineering at McGill University (where I was a member of the Mini Baja team) and my M.Eng in Aerospace Engineering at École Polytechnique (where I was project manager for a 21-student collaborative project with Bombardier, Bell Helicopter and Pratt & Whitney Canada). I worked for two years at Pratt & Whitney Canada within the Digital Engine program (evolving computer software towards the next generation of engineering design), before starting teaching part-time at John Abbott in the Engineering Technologies department in 2009. I joined the Physics department shortly thereafter and have continued to explore ways in which technology can be used to help students better engage with, and better grasp, the concepts taught in the sciences.
