UNIVERSITY OF WATERLOO

Memories of Waterloo: I really enjoyed doing assignments with my friends—it was a time to learn, to investigate, to apply our knowledge, and to be creative. Without a doubt, we also had interesting, thought provoking and beyond hilarious conversations along the way.

On the work
"One of my most interesting, current projects is a study regarding the impact of a competitor's product in the market for a large biotechnology client. I enjoy a very holistic view of the project—I gathered and processed the data, performed analysis and created the presentation slides. This project is very exciting because every analysis we perform provides new insight and leads us to another analysis to help us better understand the situation that our client is facing. I look forward to reaching a conclusion and recommendation for our client.
"Another project that I am working on is a weekly sales report for various business units for a biotechnology client. It is interesting to track the performance of the client’s product and be able to see the interaction between the client's different business units and the market. I am responsible for gathering and processing the data, analyzing the data, creating presentation slides and answering any questions or requests from the client. I enjoy this interaction with the client as it allows me to understand the client's internal structure."
On ZS values
Treat People Right: "Before starting a project, the manager/consultant of the project always initiates a very open discussion regarding the timeline, expected workload as well as any personal commitment. You can control your workload and achieve work/life balance."
On life outside work
"I love to explore Chicago. I moved to Chicago from Toronto nine months ago, and found there are so many areas and neighborhoods yet to be explored. Chicago is a great city with unique history and a great love for sports!"
