Meet the Veterans Affairs Canada Student Ambassador at UPEI

Would you like to learn more about employment opportunities with the federal government? The Veterans Affairs Canada Student Ambassador at UPEI will help you access federal employment opportunities and navigate the application process for student programs like the Federal Student Work Experience Program (FSWEP). He will assist with inquiries related to Veterans Affairs Canada and offer advice on securing federal positions after graduation.

"Being at UPEI means joining a close-knit, student-focused learning community"

What brought you to UPEI? Why did you choose to teach here?

I grew up in Kensington, Prince Edward Island and as a UPEI Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BScN) graduate myself, I experienced first-hand the supportive learning community here. After working in clinical practice and returning for my Master of Nursing, I was drawn back to UPEI because of its commitment to primary health care, student-centered teaching, and innovation in simulation-based education.
