What brought you to UPEI? Why did you choose to study here?
I'm from Mississauga, Ontario and I first came to UPEI to complete my Bachelor of Business Administration. My family is originally from Prince Edward Island, and I always loved visiting—the small-town feel, the rural landscape, and especially the beaches. When I was looking to transfer from another university in Ontario, UPEI also made financial sense, as tuition was significantly more affordable.
