Justin was born and raised in Burlington, Ontario. While in high school Justin decided to attend Ryerson for a Social Work program. However, after his first year, Justin realized that social work and Ryerson were not the right fit. He decided to leave his home region to attend university in Kingston and study Global Development and Geography. The program at Queen’s offered Justin considerable flexibility in both curricular and extracurricular opportunities. Through his program, Justin was able to study in Shanghai, China, where he played on the Fudan University football team and completed a team research project at Foxconn. Upon returning to Canada, Justin’s international experience inspired him to become an orientation leader for incoming exchange students. During Justin’s time at Queen’s, he was involved with the AMS, including his positions as a Walkhome service staff and a manager at the Student Life Centre.
Justin’s experience at Queen’s culminated with finding the Queen’s Career Apprenticeship: Kingston program (then called Career Apprenticeship Pilot Program). Through this program, Justin found employment at Benefits By Design (BBD) as an operations specialist. Benefits By Design is a group insurance and enterprise solutions provider that specializes in small business. Justin’s position was rotational and allowed him to gain experience in a variety of roles, learning the many aspects of the business and the industry at large. The mentorship provided through the program allowed Justin to flourish and consider his options for the future. Justin has since received a promotion to business analyst and aspires to become a certified project manager, which he is on track to achieve.
Justin’s favourite parts of living and working in Kingston after graduation include: the ability to maintain close ties with Queen’s, including his friends and professors, the lifestyle of a smaller city, and the lower costs of living relative to many of his friends in larger cities.
Justin speaking about QCA:K: “It has truly been a great platform to start my professional career. Starting your first job after university is such a pivotal moment in a young person’s life. Having support from QCA:K has made this transition from student life to the workplace seamless.”
