Fresh off a strong showing at a prestigious robotics competition, with a degree from Queen’s University in hand, he’s preparing to work as a space systems engineer for MDA, the company that builds the latest version of the Canadarm, among other high-tech space-related projects.
They ended up placing 18th, beating teams from prestigious programs including U.S. Ivy League schools and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The Queen’s University Space Engineering Team’s Mars rover sits atop a rock formation in the Utah desert during the University Rover Challenge, an annual event put on by The Mars Society.
“I don’t think I’d be nearly as competent in mathematics as I am if there wasn’t someone just so passionate about teaching,” he added.
