I have my Bachelor's of Science Degree in Mathematics from Saint Mary's University (Halifax, NS) and my Master's and PhD (ABD) in Applied Mathematics are from the University of Waterloo (Waterloo, ON). The research I did was related to hydrocephalus, a medical condition that affects the human brain. My Bachelor's Degree in Education is from the University of Western Ontario (London, ON).
