Favorite Project & Why
Although I like several of VIA’s projects, the planning of Northeast and Southeast False Creek is my personal favorite. The project encapsulates VIA’s approach to developing sustainable and livable communities.
Favorite Thing About Your Job
I am privileged to live in one of the most livable urban regions of the world. I am also fortunate to be able to add to the vibrancy of this city through my work. Nothing excites me more than to assess and improve the interactions between people and places. After all, what is a city without the energy of its people?
Favorite Thing to Do
I enjoy traveling and making new friends. This has greatly shaped my understanding of countries and cultures. These experiences have raised my appreciation for diversity and have also cultivated respect for my own culture.
Three Things You Can’t Live Without
