“I was drawn back to Saskatchewan by its multicultural environment and amiable and cordial people.”

“I had never heard of Saskatoon before I came two decades ago. Then, I viewed my sojourn as a stepping stone to my next magnificent opportunity, preferably in a big Canadian city. Four years in, I completed a fellowship in Ottawa, but I was drawn back to Saskatchewan by its multicultural environment and amiable and cordial people. 

I have since established strong roots for family, profession and faith. The result is I have a niche in my specialty and not an inch of regret even when it is frigidly cold.”
