I joined UBC Okanagan in 2008 as a Professor after working at the University of Alberta and Laurentian University. My 11 years of service to UBC in a range of roles has given me a detailed understanding of how the Okanagan campus functions along with a historical perspective of the changes and growth in recent years. I would use this knowledge and experience to assist with the selection of a strong Deputy Vice-Chancellor in the interests of our entire campus community.
Among other roles, my experience includes:
- 3-year term as a Senator at UBCO including chair of the Senate Curriculum Committee followed by current term as a Senator and member of many Senate sub-committees
- 4 years as the Associate Director – Undergraduate Students in the School of Engineering
- Member of a Provost Selection Committee
- Member of the UBC Okanagan Master Plan Steering Committee
- 6 months as Acting Associate Dean – School of Engineering
- 10 months as Dean pro tem, College of Graduate Studies
