Schulich School of Business. Beautiful building, right? That's where I spent many hours earning my MBA (Strategic Management / International Business, 2008). The old Schulich building where I earned my Honors BBA (Marketing, 2000) is just a short walk from this one; it was much less nice, but still had it's charms.

I worked at Starbucks Coffee Canada for four years, which was likely the start of my current caffeine addiction. I helped launched Starbucks Coffee into grocery stores, then ran all of the marketing for Canada for every division except their retail stores. (That would be Foodservice, Office Coffee, and Licensed Stores Business Development.) Fun Fact: I was not only a certified barista, but also a Black Apron Coffee Master!
