My education at Baron Byng High School was excellent, with dedicated masters (boys and girls were separate).
Growing up, mostly in Montreal, I was an only child of loving parents.
I have always loved going to school.
My interest in the sciences started with mathematics in the very beginning, and later with chemistry in early high school and the proverbial home chemistry set.
Being exposed to theory, stimulated by a basic love of concepts and mathematics, was a marvelous experience.
