Shannon is an overly ambitious musician and biomedical mechanical engineer (licensed Professional Engineer (P.Eng) of Ontario). She holds a Master of Engineering in Mechanical and Industrial Engineering from the University of Toronto (Canada) granted with the highest honours. Her undergraduate degree was pursued at the University of Ottawa (Canada's capital), winner of 17 national awards and 2 international awards for engineering design and inventions. From these initiatives, Shannon was titled by the Queen's representative as the "Most Innovative Person" of the province. Shannon continued her fiery passion for engineering during her graduate years of study, where she briefly pursued a graduate research thesis under Canada's Turbulence Research Lab and specialized in combustion engineering at the University of Toronto Institute for Aerospace Studies. If not studying, Shannon worked with the university's racing team as the Structural Lead and the driver in the races! Shannon's work experience was primarily in the automated industrial manufacturing industry, as the lead mechanical engineer in designing Canada's largest additive manufacturing machine. Her focus has then shifted towards global engineering, where she worked on mechanical designs to solve some of the world's most serious global challenges (aka the Sustainable Development Goals defined by the UN). Shannon now works with developing engineering startups within the University of Toronto's Faculty of Engineering network and continues to help develop startups targeting sustainable development.
Shannon is inspired by quirky people who are extremely passionate in pursuing their visions in any field. This includes famous musicians and engineers, but also close colleagues in the entrepreneurial space, as well as immediate friends and family members. People who believe in their vision and work tirelessly towards their personal and professional growth inspires Shannon on a daily basis.
Engineering Computer-Aided Design (CAD) is a necessary tool for sustainable development. Shannon believes that to find sustainable solutions, there needs to be a collaborative work environment that bridges geographical gaps between engineers.
Shannon is an INFJ-empath, and can feel the emotions and energy of others, including animals. Shannon can easily feel the emotions of others , enabling Shannon to give utmost compassion in any interaction!
