I spent at least 90% of my life implicitly thinking: “I don’t have time to do this properly right now, but I will get around to it eventually”. I rarely feel like what I am doing is the final and official version of that thing, or the best version of the thing I could produce.
And yet, opportunities vanish and our time is not infinite. It’s pretty rare that I actually get to go back and make another attempt at something.

In the spring of 2005, I graduated from the University of British Columbia with a degree in International Relations and a general focus in the area of environmental politics. Between 2005 and 2007 I completed an M.Phil in IR at Wadham College, Oxford. I worked for five years for the Canadian federal government, including completing the Accelerated Economist Training Program, and then completed a PhD in Political Science at the University of Toronto in 2023.
