“As a Grade 13 student, I participated in the City Science Fair in Toronto and then went on to represent my region at the Canada-Wide Science Fair. It was an experience that would ultimately define my life.”
“Science fairs were a life-changing experience that really made me realize, if I set my mind to something, anything is possible. It was an exciting moment as a 15-year-old.”
“My success as an award winning scientist, engineer, and entrepreneur can be directly traced back to my science fair days…these experiences fueled and shaped my intellectual curiosity.”
Fueling the curiosity of Canadian youth through science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) projects.
