During my time at York University, I learned perseverance and my studies provided me with the foundation to think independently and critically which has been pivotal in my 25-plus year career as an accountant. It also presented me with a gift that I cherish most in life, my wonderful husband of 26 years and our two beautiful sons. We met during our first week in residence at Stong College and since then he has been my biggest cheerleader, unconditionally supporting me throughout my professional career and our family life together.
