Greetings! I have been on vacation in the United Kingdom for two weeks (I had a stellar time). While in the UK, and more specifically in Lancaster, England, I found out that I am now a Killam Scholar! What this means for me is that I have been fortunate enough to receive funding from the Killam Trusts (University of Alberta Izaak Walton Killam Scholarship) for my PhD research and education. I am very thankful that I received this award / honor!!
